Abstract

While known healthcare disparities among patients with fibroids exist, there is a lack of research on health equity in this specific population and how it affects patients seeking care and the treatment options offered or ultimately the selection they make. Subject matter experts from interventional radiology, obstetrics and gynecology, epidemiology, public health, and patient advocacy participated in a Society of Interventional Radiology (SIR) Foundation Research Consensus Panel to discuss and prioritize critical research topics focusing on health equity in patients with uterine fibroids. After topic presentations and discussion of research ideas, the panelists prioritized the following topics: a) a prospective study evaluating whether the introduction of a standard educational program to patients with low health literacy regarding fibroids will improve their scores on standardized patient-reported outcome measures; b) evaluating whether a digital-based technology can be effectively used to improve health education and awareness of fibroids; and c) surveys of patients to understand their barriers to accessing fibroid care and their motivations for selecting different fibroid treatments.

肌瘤与健康公平：介入放射学会基金会研究共识小组会议记录。

虽然已知存在肌瘤患者之间的医疗保健差异，但缺乏对这一特定人群的健康公平以及它如何影响患者寻求护理和提供的治疗方案或最终选择的研究。来自介入放射学、妇产科、流行病学、公共卫生和患者倡导的主题专家参加了介入放射学学会（SIR）基金会研究共识小组，讨论并优先考虑子宫肌瘤患者健康公平的关键研究课题。在主题陈述和研究思路的讨论之后，小组成员优先考虑了以下主题：a)一项前瞻性研究，评估对肌瘤健康素养较低的患者引入标准教育计划是否会提高他们在标准化患者报告结果测量中的得分；B)评估数字技术是否可以有效地用于改善肌瘤的健康教育和意识；c)对患者进行调查，了解他们获得肌瘤护理的障碍以及他们选择不同肌瘤治疗的动机。
