OBJECTIVE
To explore adult medical oncology outpatients' understanding of and preferences for the format of health risk information.
METHODS
Two surveys, one assessing sociodemographic characteristics and a second survey examining perceptions of risk information.
RESULTS
Of the 361 (74%) consenting patients, 210 completed at least one question on risk communication. 17% to 65% of patients understood numeric risk information, depending on the format of the information. More than 50% of people interpreted a "very good" chance of remission as greater than 80%, greater than 90% or 100%. The most preferred format of information was in both words and numbers (38% to 43%) followed by words alone (28% to 30%).
CONCLUSION
Numeric risk information is understood by 17% to 65% of respondents, depending on the format. Interpretation of verbal risk information is highly variable, posing a risk of misunderstanding. Provision of information in both words and numbers may assist in aiding comprehension.
目的
探讨成人肿瘤内科门诊患者对健康风险信息格式的理解和偏好。
方法
进行了两项调查，第一项评估社会人口统计学特征，第二项调查评估对风险信息的认知。
结果
在 361 名（74%）同意参与的患者中，210 名患者至少完成了一项风险沟通问题的回答。根据信息格式的不同，17%至 65%的患者理解数值风险信息。超过 50%的人将“非常高的缓解机会”解释为大于 80%、大于 90%或 100%。最受欢迎的信息格式是文字加数字（38%至 43%），其次是仅文字（28%至 30%）。
结论
根据格式的不同，17%至 65%的受访者可以理解数值风险信息。对口头风险信息的解释差异很大，存在误解的风险。提供文字和数字两种形式的信息可能有助于帮助理解。
