KNOWLEDGE, ATTITUDES AND FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH ADVERSE DRUG REACTION REPORTING AMONG HEALTHCARE WORKERS AT PHAM NGOC THACH THAI NGUYEN HOSPITAL IN 2026
Overview
Abstract:
Objective: To assess healthcare workers’
knowledge and attitudes toward adverse drug reaction (ADR) reporting and to
identify factors associated with having both adequate knowledge and positive
attitudes at Pham Ngoc Thach Thai Nguyen Hospital in 2026.
Subjects and
Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted among 165 healthcare
workers currently employed at the hospital. Data were collected using an online
questionnaire and analyzed using Microsoft Excel 2016 and SPSS version 26.0.
Results: The proportion of healthcare workers
with adequate knowledge of ADR reporting was 38.8%, while 80.6% had positive
attitudes; 34.5% had both adequate knowledge and positive attitudes. Some
practice-related knowledge areas remained limited, particularly knowledge of
ADR report receiving agencies and reporting submission methods. Professional
qualification and participation in ADR training were significantly associated
with having both adequate knowledge and positive attitudes.
Conclusion: Regular training, standardized
reporting procedures, and strengthening the role of clinical pharmacists are
needed to improve pharmacovigilance activities at the hospital.
