Fact box
A fact box is a simplified display format that presents evidence based data about the benefits and harms of medical treatments, screenings or interventions.The format has been shown to improve people’s understanding of health-related risk information. Benefits and harms are displayed in absolute numbers in a table, which allows the user to compare outcomes for people who received a particular treatment or intervention with outcomes for people who did not receive this treatment (or who received a placebo, e.g., a sugar pill). Fact boxes do not use statistics that might be misleading to the reader, such as relative risks, mismatched framing and five-year survival rates for screening. In addition, an explanation of medical terms and procedures is provided. Fact boxes can be used for discussing treatment alternatives with a physician. Moreover, additional information sources can be provided by using digital media to visually present the information contained in fact boxes.
