Evaluating the Readability of the iPledge Comprehension Assessment and its Impact on Isotretinoin Accessibility.
Isotretinoin, the standard treatment for severe nodular acne, is subject to stringent iPLEDGE regulations due to its teratogenic risks, requiring monthly assessments for patients of childbearing potential. Analysis of the iPLEDGE Comprehension Assessment (iPCA) revealed an average readability score of grade 8.5, exceeding the recommended grade 6 level for optimal patient comprehension. The complex language of iPCA may hinder patients from accessing treatment, contributing to delays and potential discontinuation, especially among female patients. While the overall number of isotretinoin-exposed pregnancies has decreased since the inception of iPledge, several hundred pregnancies continue to be reported, and simplification of iPCA presents one avenue to improve patient comprehension, safety, and ensuring equitable access to isotretinoin.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
