更新和扩展以前的工作审查网站,讨论家庭药物测试的父母和评估信息的质量,网站提供,以帮助他们决定何时以及如何使用家庭药物测试。我们进行了一次全球性的网络搜索,确定了八个网站,为家长提供家庭药物检测的信息。我们使用与青少年药物滥用和心理干预领域专家共同开发的检查表评估了网站上的信息,重点是尿检。没有一个网站涵盖了24项清单上的所有项目,只有三个网站至少涵盖了一半的项目(分别为12、14和21项)。剩下的五个网站涵盖了不到一半的清单项目。网站所涵盖的平均项目数为11个。在我们审查的网站中,很少有网站向家长提供有关药物支持策略的全面信息,以有效地使用药物测试来干预青少年药物使用。此外,大多数网站没有提供关于风险和益处的全面信息,以告知父母使用家庭药物测试的决定。需要关于家庭药物测试的功效、益处、风险和局限性的经验证据。
To update and extend prior work reviewing websites that discuss home drug testing for parents and assess the quality of information that the websites provide to assist them to decide when and how to use home drug testing. We conducted a world-wide web search that identified eight websites providing information for parents on home drug testing. We assessed the information on the sites using checklist developed with field experts in adolescent substance abuse and psychosocial interventions that focus on urine testing. None of the websites covered all of items on the 24-item checklist, and only three covered at least half of the items (12, 14, and 21 items, respectively). The five remaining websites covered less than half the checklist items. The mean number of items covered by the websites was 11. Among the websites that we reviewed, few provided thorough information to parents regarding empirically-supported strategies to effectively use drug testing to intervene on adolescent substance use. Furthermore, most websites did not provide thorough information regarding the risks and benefits to inform parents’ decision to use home drug testing. Empirical evidence regarding efficacy, benefits, risks, and limitations of home drug testing is needed.
