Placebo medication regimens may help educate students about adherence issues. In this randomized trial, 23 third-year medical students took a 2-week placebo regimen mimicking highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) during their medicine clerkship; 15 students served as controls. Although no effect was demonstrated from this intervention on an evaluation instrument examining attitudes and beliefs about medication nonadherence, all 23 student-subjects agreed in postintervention interviews that the experience was useful and had learning value. Representative comments from the 19 subjects who expanded their interview responses portray this intervention as an eye-opening and unique method for teaching students about medication adherence issues.
安慰剂用药方案可能有助于让学生了解依从性问题。在这项随机试验中,23名三年级医学生在实习期间接受了为期2周的模仿高效抗逆转录病毒疗法(HAART)的安慰剂方案;15名学生作为对照。尽管该干预措施在一项检查对药物不依从态度和信念的评估工具上未显示出效果,但所有23名学生受试者在干预后的访谈中都认为该经历有用且具有学习价值。19名在访谈中详细阐述了回答的受试者的代表性评论将这种干预描述为一种让学生了解药物依从性问题的令人大开眼界且独特的方法。
