This web-based survey study evaluated the effectiveness of additional risk minimization measures (aRMMs) and the impact of these aRMMs on the awareness and knowledge levels of recipients—healthcare professionals (HCPs) and patients and their caregivers.
The risk minimization tools had limited reach and/or response and thus their utility and effectiveness in educating the target audience was also limited. However, within this limitation, the tools were found to be useful among patients and caregivers who received them from their treating HCPs.
The survey results provided insights and recommendations that can be incorporated into similar studies in the future to enable a wider and more targeted reach to prescribers and users while improving clinical safety outcomes.
