Pre- and post-intervention study demonstrates increased adverse drug reaction reporting among healthcare providers, highlighting the value of targeted safety training.
Background: This study assessed how an educational intervention affected healthcare providers' knowledge and practice of pharmacovigilance (PV) principles, with an emphasis on enhancing the reporting ADRs. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, a structured questionnaire was utilised. A pre- and post-educational intervention design was used to assess the influence of a PV workshop on ADRs reporting in Jordan. The PV educational workshop was a one-year interactive session that addressed core PV principles. When comparing the period before to after launching the workshop, the number of reported cases of ADRs increased from 546 to 1060, and the number of reported ADRs increased from 1216 to 1763. Conclusion: The educational intervention improved healthcare providers' knowledge and practices related to PV and ADR reporting. These findings highlight the importance of targeted training initiatives in strengthening PV systems and promoting a culture of safety within healthcare settings.
