Distribution Differences of Medical and Clinical Research and Clinical Trial Information by Hospital Size in Japan

Daisuke Ogino, Satomi Noguchi and Hajime Sato

It is known that information regarding clinical research/trials is not easily available to the public in Japan. To improve the current clinical research/trial information portals, we could consider combining them with intelligible clinical information; moreover, we could explore how best to provide trial-related information to patients and medical professionals. To this end, we conducted a questionnaire survey; self-administered questionnaires were administered by post to medical facilities in Japan. The responses to a few questions were statistically significant with regard to the distribution of clinical research/trial information. We confirmed that several medical facilities have provided clinical research/trial information to the public. However, we need to consider the distribution of the information content expected by the patients and citizens. For greater awareness, it is necessary that medical facilities consider the method of information delivery from the viewpoints of patients and citizens, regardless of whether they are a small or large facility.
