RAD-AR是药品风险评估-分析和反应的简称,是一个旨在改善药品风险分析和管理的项目。在RAD-AR计划的背景下,风险感知已被指定为优先研究领域。感知知识已被证明在帮助个人和社会更有效地管理风险方面至关重要[4,7]。在医学上,对药物风险的认知可能会影响患者的治疗选择、他们对治疗方案的依从性、他们对不良反应可接受性的看法以及他们对政府药物监管的态度[9]。理解感知是为患者和公众设计更好的沟通材料的先决条件。然而,这一领域的大多数工作都集中在对核能、工业化学品和其他非医疗危害的风险的认识上。很少有研究(如果有的话)检查了对药物风险的看法。
RAD-AR, standing for risk assessment of drugs—analysis and response, is a program designed to improve the analysis and management of drug risks. Within the context of the RAD-AR program, risk perception has been designated as a priority research area. Knowledge of perception has been demonstrated to be vitally important in helping individuals and societies manage risks more effectively [4, 7]. In medicine, perceptions of drug risks are likely to influence patients’ treatment choices, their compliance with treatment regimes, their views on the acceptability of adverse reactions, and their attitudes toward government regulation of drugs [9]. Understanding perceptions is a prerequisite for designing better communication materials for patients and the public. Yet most work in this area has focused on perceptions of risk from nuclear power, industrial chemicals, and other nonmedical hazards. Few, if any, studies have examined perceptions of pharmaceutical risks.
