“…Clark and Bayley compared a programmed instruction booklet for warfarin therapy with a two-page handout 101 (both interventions provided the same information). Dolinsky and colleagues manipulated the presentation in two information sheets: the 'read-organise-attend format' used underlining and short paragraphs, whereas the 'easy-to-read format' used information that was 'readable', such as short, simple sentences.…”

HTA on CD is currently free of charge worldwide.The website also provides information about the HTA Programme and lists the membership of the various committees. HTA NIHR Health Technology Assessment ProgrammeT he Health Technology Assessment (HTA) programme, now part of the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR), was set up in 1993. It produces high-quality research information on the costs, effectiveness and broader impact of health technologies for those who use, manage and provide care in the NHS. 'Health technologies' are broadly defined to include all interventions used to promote health, prevent and treat disease, and improve rehabilitation and long-term care, rather than settings of care. The research findings from the HTA Programme directly influence decision-making bodies such as the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) and the National Screening Committee (NSC). HTA findings also help to improve the quality of clinical practice in the NHS indirectly in that they form a key component of the 'National Knowledge Service'. The HTA Programme is needs-led in that it fills gaps in the evidence needed by the NHS. There are three routes to the start of projects. First is the commissioned route. Suggestions for research are actively sought from people working in the NHS, the public and consumer groups and professional bodies such as ...

Background Medicines are the most common intervention in most health services. As with all treatments, those taking medicines need su icient information: to enable them to take and use the medicines e ectively, to understand the potential harms and benefits, and to allow them to make an informed decision about taking them. Written medicines information, such as a leaflet or provided via the Internet, is an intervention that may meet these purposes. Objectives To assess the e ects of providing written information about individual medicines on relevant patient outcomes (knowledge, attitudes, behaviours and health outcomes) in relation to prescribed and over-the-counter medicines. Search methods We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, The Cochrane Library, PsycINFO and other databases to March 2007. We handsearched five journals' tables of contents, and the reference lists of included studies, and contacted experts in the field. Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) of medicine users, comparing written medicines information with no written medicines information; or trials that compared two or more styles of written medicines information. We only included trials that measured a knowledge, attitudinal or behavioural outcome. There were no language restrictions. Data collection and analysis Two review authors independently extracted data relating to the interventions, methods of the trials, and outcome measures; and reconciled di erences by discussion. Heterogeneity of interventions and outcomes measured meant that data synthesis was not possible. The results are presented in narrative and tabular format. Main results We included 25 RCTs involving 4788 participants. Six of twelve trials showed that written information significantly improved knowledge about a medicine, compared with no written information. The inability to combine results means we cannot conclude whether written information was e ective for increasing knowledge. The results for attitudinal and behavioural outcomes were mixed. No studies showed an adverse e ect of medicines information. Written information about individual medicines for consumers (Review)

Preliminary work regarding the development and pilot study of an individualized instructionalprogram for rheumatoid arthritis clients is presented. The effect of the individualized instructional program was tested with 31 outpatients. Using analysis of covariance, the experimental group subjectsscored significantly higher on the knowledge post‐test when compared to scores of control group subjects (P = 0.0045). Analysis of variance for repeated measures revealed no significant difference in performance of tasks for the control group and experimental group (P = 0.08). In a follow‐up study, the effect of the self‐instructional program, practice time, and contracting were explored for their effect on adherence to self‐care activities. Experimentalgroups (n = 42) scored significantly better than the control group (n = 11) on the knowledge post‐test (P < 0.01), performance of joint protection practices (P = 0.01), range of motion exercises (P = 0.01), and adherence to joint protection practices at home (P < 0.01). Groups did not differ on adherence to range of motion exercises at home (P = 0.83).
