Table 3 Comparison of Clinician Only versus Combined Clinician–Patient Reminder Strategy
Number of Interventions (Number of studies) ∗ | Average difference % (min, max) | Standard deviation | |
---|---|---|---|
Clinician only | 175 (44) | 14 (−18 to 60) | 16 |
Clinician and patient | 105 (26) | 10 (−24 to 45) | 12 |
∗ The total number of interventions exceeds 264 because nine studies, evaluating various numbers of preventive care measures, compared the effect of a unique prompting technique in a clinician only group versus a combined clinician and patient group.
