keratitis (AK) is a rare but severe eye disease. A research engagement event, "The Cornea Day," in London, UK in 2013, identified the lack of credible information about AK and a need for practical day to day management strategies. Experiences of 15 AK patients attending The Cornea Day were distilled into a survey that was administered to a wider group of 76 patients, carers, researchers, and clinicians. A Patient Information Leaflet was cocreated and then represented to additional patients for final modification. The AK Patient Leaflet (revised 2019) is available in several languages and used globally.
棘阿米巴角膜炎(AK)是一种罕见但严重的眼部疾病。2013年在英国伦敦举办的一次研究活动“角膜日”发现,关于棘阿米巴角膜炎缺乏可靠信息,且需要日常实用的管理策略。参加“角膜日”的15名棘阿米巴角膜炎患者的经历被提炼成一项调查,并对76名更广泛的患者、护理人员、研究人员和临床医生进行了调查。共同创作了一份患者信息手册,然后向更多患者展示以进行最终修改。《棘阿米巴角膜炎患者手册》(2019年修订版)有多种语言版本,在全球范围内使用。
