Web-based Education on Oral Cancer for Primary Care Physicians in Ohio
Objective:
The experimental design is a one-site, randomized experimental web-based educational feasibility intervention trial, with approximately 50% primary care physicians (PCPs) in the intervention group and approximately 50% PCPs on the control group, giving a total of 159 participants. All 159 participants have willingly provided their e-mail addresses, as part of a survey they previously completed entitled, "Survey of Health Professionals on Oral Cancer in Ohio- Intervention to Prevent Delayed Diagnosis of Oral Cancer."

Index of knowledge of diagnostic procedure for oral cancer
Periodo de tiempo: An average of 8 months from the time of the initial email sent on 7/21/11.
|
The list of participants will be sent an initial email inviting them to view the module and complete a pre test (control group) or a post test (intervention group).
Reminder emails will be sent every 2 months for up to 6 months following the initial email.
It is expected that at least a 15% higher proportion of Intervention group PCPs will attain the high score category for each of this index, as compared to the Control group PCPs.
