简介：有一个缺乏的文献提供指导如何有效地沟通有关临床研究（CR）。方法：使用的沟通，内容分析的研究者（n=62）和参与者（n=18）的网站资助的机构通过美国国立卫生研究院临床和转化科学奖（CTSA）进行，以确定他们的战略（例如，结果：CTSA的目标调查者与CR参与内容在主要网站，虽然大多数CTSA（n=55; 88.7%）还包括CR参与内容的参与者。总共有18个CTSA（29%）托管了参与者的网站。参与者网站包括13种关于CR参与的消息类型（例如，注册表登记）和5个附加通道（例如，电子邮件，电话号码），以沟通有关CR。然而，许多CTSA参与者的网站排除了解释CR过程的信息，只提供英文CR内容。结论：CTSA应确定其目标受众和设计策略（例如，信道（Channel）。
Introduction: There is a dearth of literature providing guidance on how to effectively communicate about clinical research (CR).Methods: Using the transactional model of communication, a content analysis of the investigator (n=62) and participant (n=18) Web sites of institutions funded through the National Institutes of Health Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) was conducted to identify their strategies (e.g., messages) for communicating about CR participation.Results: CTSAs targeted investigators with CR participation content across the main Web sites, although most CTSAs (n=55; 88.7%) also included CR participation content for participants. In total, 18 CTSAs (29%) hosted participant Web sites. Participant sites included 13 message types about CR participation (e.g., registry enrollment) and 5 additional channels (e.g., email, phone number) to communicate about CR. However, many CTSA participant Web sites excluded information explaining the CR process and offered CR content exclusively in English.Conclusion: CTSAs should identify their target audience and design strategies (e.g., messages, channels) accordingly.
