Introduction
This EUPATI Mini-course starter kit is designed for patient involvement in health technology assessment regulation.
This EUPATI Mini-course starter kit is based on content derived from the EUPATI Open Classroom and was created as part of the HTA4Patients European Project.
The starter kits are thought to address roles that patients play in medicines development for example those shown in the figure below.
-
- Patients can be involved across the process of medicines R&D. This diagram created by Geissler, Ryll, Leto, and Uhlenhopp identifies some existing areas in which patients are involved in the process. It distinguishes between the level of expertise in a disease area that is required and the different areas where involvement can take place.
The starter kits provide you with links to relevant background reading in the Toolbox and Open Classroom, along with a Trainer's Manual to support the preparation of single or multi-day training on the subject. Each of the starter kits contains a selection of PPT slides which you may use to educate patients/advocates about the “basics” in that area, e.g. in a two-hour to one-day seminar.
None of the “starter kits” are “ready-made course” modules – they are a ready-to-reuse resource for an experienced trainer to prepare and execute a course. You will need to edit them and put them into context.
Before you begin please download and review the ‘Manual for Trainers’: A manual for trainers describing how to use the EUPATI mini-course starter kits to create trainings on patient involvement.
