主要目标：电子患者门户使患者能够访问个人医疗数据，从而有可能为提高知识、自我效能和参与医疗保健创造机会。知识、自我效能和参与的结合被称为激活。我们的目的是评估患者激活和门诊患者门户使用之间的关系。研究设计：调查。方法和程序：对180例使用门户网站的患者进行电话调查，其中113例使用，67例未使用。验证的患者激活测量（PAM）与人口统计学和行为问题一起进行。结果：门户用户与非用户在患者激活方面没有区别。门户网站用户确实具有更高的教育水平和更频繁的互联网使用，并且更有可能精确地使用处方药，而不是使用更多或更少的药物。结论：选择使用电子患者门户的患者并不比不使用的患者更活跃，尽管他们受教育程度更高，更有可能是互联网用户。
Primary objective: Electronic patient portals give patients access to personal medical data, potentially creating opportunities to improve knowledge, self-efficacy, and engagement in healthcare. The combination of knowledge, self-efficacy, and engagement has been termed activation. Our objective was to assess the relationship between patient activation and outpatient use of a patient portal.Research design: Survey.Methods and procedures: A telephone survey was conducted with 180 patients who had been given access to a portal, 113 of whom used it and 67 of whom did not. The validated patient activation measure (PAM) was administered along with questions about demographics and behaviors.Results: Portal users were no different from nonusers in patient activation. Portal users did have higher education level and more frequent Internet use, and were more likely to have precisely 2 prescription medications than to have more or fewer.Conclusion: Patients who chose to use an electronic patient portal were not more highly activated than nonusers, although they were more educated and more likely to be Internet users.
