This short review provides insight into the extent and effectiveness of patient involvement in the design and evaluation of pictograms to support patient drug information. Pubmed, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, Embase, PsycINFO, Academic Search Premier and Web of Science were searched systematically; the 73 included articles were evaluated with the MMAT. We see that, usually, non-patient end-users are involved in the design of pharmaceutical pictograms – patients are more commonly involved in the final evaluation of pictogram success. Repeated involvement of (non-)patients aids the design of effective pharmaceutical pictograms, although there is limited evidence for such effects on patient perception of drug information or health behaviour.

这篇简短的评论深入了解了患者参与设计和评估象形图以支持患者药物信息的程度和有效性。系统搜索了Pubmed，CINAHL，Cochrane图书馆，Embase，PsycINFO，Academic Search Premier和Web of Science；使用MMAT对其中的73篇文章进行了评估。我们看到，通常，非患者最终用户会参与药物象形图的设计，而患者通常会参与象形图成功性的最终评估。（非）患者的反复参与有助于设计有效的药物象形图，尽管这种证据对患者对药物信息或健康行为的感知影响有限。
