Husna Fatima, Department of Pharmacology, Deccan College of Medical Sciences, Hyderabad, Telangana, India Organising frequent CME programmes and workshops will increase the credibility of health care in the country. CME on PV was found to increase knowledge and positive attitudes towards various aspects of PV.Ĭonclusions: Training programme on PV will help increase the knowledge as well as awareness about principles and techniques of PV and improve the rate of spontaneous ADR reporting. Results: Out of 110 participants, 96 participants completely filled the questionnaire before and after the educational intervention (CME). Impact of effectiveness of educational intervention (continuing medical education-CME (pharmacovigilance workshop) was evaluated by paired t-test. They completed it before and after undergoing training programme in PV. Methods: A cross sectional questionnaire based study was conducted among health care professionals of a tertiary health care and teaching institute. This study was conducted to assess the level of knowledge, awareness and practice of PV among health care professionals and to assess subsequent change in these after PV training session. However, the practice of PV is still very low among health care professionals due to lack of knowledge and awareness. Pharmacovigilance, Awareness, Adverse drug reactions, Knowledge, Practice Abstractīackground: Pharmacovigilance (PV) is an important tool in generating adverse drug reaction (ADR) data. TB programme staff and consultants may adapt and extract ideas from the Sample KAP survey questionnaire and Menu of sample ACSM KAP survey questions that are provided as Annexes.Department of Pharmacology, Deccan College of Medical Sciences, Hyderabad, Telangana, India A list of further reading is provided to guide readers to documents that complement the topics covered in this guide. The guide is organized in six major steps that range from conceptualization of the purpose of the KAP survey to analysis and use of the data collected. TB programme staff and consultants are encouraged to use the tools included in this guide as practical suggestions, rather than scripts or rules. This resource is intended to serve not as a definitive work, but as a practical toolkit that offers a theoretical framework, practical suggestions, and a menu of useful resources and tools. The guide was developed as a tool to help systematize countries’ approaches to collecting and using data on knowledge, attitudes and practices (KAP) as an evidence base for planning, refining and evaluating ACSM work. The guide may also be a helpful tool for consultants hired to assist country programmes in conducting ACSM work. This guide is designed for tuberculosis (TB) programme managers and staff who intend to conduct advocacy, communication and social mobilization (ACSM) activities as part of their broader TB control strategy. A well-designed and rigorously conducted KAP survey produces data that are informative, insightful and broadly useful in the planning of ACSM activities for TB control. Evidence-based programming underlines the importance of collecting baseline and follow-up data to design and evaluate ACSM activities aimed at populations or specific subgroups. To bring about sustainable social and behavioural change, ACSM interventions need to be evidence-based. ![]()
