Engaging stakeholders in the research process has the potential to improve quality of care and the patient care experience. Online patient community surveys can elicit important topic areas for comparative effectiveness research. Stakeholder meetings with substantial patient representation, as well as representation from health care delivery systems and research funding agencies, are a valuable tool for selecting and refining pilot research and quality improvement projects. Giving patient stakeholders a deciding vote in selecting pilot research topics helps ensure their 'voice' is heard. Researchers and health care leaders should continue to develop best-practices and strategies for increasing patient involvement in comparative effectiveness and delivery science research.
让利益相关者参与研究过程有可能改善医疗质量和患者的就医体验。在线患者社区调查可以引出比较有效性研究的重要主题领域。有大量患者代表以及来自医疗服务系统和研究资助机构的代表参加的利益相关者会议,是选择和完善试点研究和质量改进项目的一种有价值的工具。让患者利益相关者在选择试点研究课题方面拥有决定性投票权有助于确保他们的“声音”被听到。研究人员和医疗保健领导人应继续制定最佳实践和策略,以增加患者参与比较有效性和交付科学研究。
