title: [Research in regional hospitals in two Danish regions].
abstract: The quantity of interest, experience, and barriers to research in non-university hospitals in Denmark is undocumented. Therefore, a questionnaire was distributed to all employees at non-university hospitals in two Danish regions. The results showed that a substantial number of medical doctors were engaged in ongoing research. 24% of the respondents were supervisors in research projects, and 19% conducted contract research. Thus, Danish non-university hospitals have employees with both interest and experience in medical research. The four most commonly stated barriers for research were lack of time, funding, supervision, and training courses.
