Abstract
Patient education in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has become increasingly complex with the introduction of new treatments and chemotherapy regimens. Video education presents an opportunity to supplement traditional patient education and address some of the gaps associated with standard methods. This single-center study sought to assess the potential impact of supplemental video education on patients receiving induction chemotherapy for AML. Participants were consented to be randomized to receive their education with or without a supplemental video designed for their treatment regimen. We then provided a survey to each participant to assess knowledge retention, anxiety, and overall satisfaction with their care. Patients that received video education were found to have significantly improved knowledge retention compared to those that did not. There were no differences detected in anxiety or patient satisfaction. Video education appears to be an effective supplemental method for patient education in AML. Limitations include the single-center nature of the study at an urban academic medical center with a relatively well-educated, primarily Caucasian, younger population. Future research is warranted to assess the video in a diverse set of languages and to explore its broader benefits.

JOURNAL OF CANCER EDUCATION : THE OFFICIAL JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN ASSOCIATION FOR CANCER EDUCATION 2024; 39:279-287. [PMID: 38388826 PMCID: PMC11102385 DOI: 10.1007/s13187-024-02408-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 02/08/2024] [Indexed: 02/24/2024]
Abstract
Patient education and informed consent are required prior to adjuvant radiation therapy (RT) for early breast cancer (EBC), and include the role, rationale, potential toxicities and practicalities of the treatment process. Current education of patients about RT is verbal, in the form of a consultation by a radiation oncologist, often supplemented with print or online materials. This approach is limited by its doctor-dependency and non-standardised nature. Video education is being recognised increasingly as an opportunity to remediate this and appeal to patients' preference for visual learning. The purpose of this study was to design and produce a video as an educational adjunct for EBC patients' viewing prior to adjuvant RT, and to evaluate its acceptability through content analysis of three online focus group discussions, among ten participants with EBC requiring RT. After qualitative content analysis of the focus group transcripts, data were summarised into three main categories: (1) understanding of RT, (2) ease of engagement with the video and (3) anxiety and preparedness for RT. The 18-min video was positively received by all participants, and discussion feedback was used to inform improvements to the video. This focus group study demonstrated that the video was well understood, informative and acceptable to EBC patients in preparing them for RT. The effectiveness of the video in improving knowledge and alleviating distress in preparation for therapy will be further evaluated in an ethics-approved biphasic quasi-experimental study.

Zheng Y, Yan Q. Effect of application of short-form video health education on the health knowledge and satisfaction with nursing care of patients with lower extremity fractures. BMC Nurs 2023; 22:395. [PMID: 37858080 PMCID: PMC10588147 DOI: 10.1186/s12912-023-01530-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2022] [Accepted: 09/25/2023] [Indexed: 10/21/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Video health education has been increasingly adopted in the clinic to expand patient guidance and improve perioperative outcomes. To date, however, it is unclear whether the use of short-form videos and web-based clinician-created forums actually improve the perioperative experience of patients. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of application of short-form video health education on the health knowledge and satisfaction with nursing care of patients with lower extremity fractures. METHODS This study is a quasi experimental study, using convenient sampling method and grouping according to historical control., one hundred and twenty-two patients admitted with lower limb fractures to the orthopedic ward of a tertiary first-class general hospital in Fujian, China were enrolled in this study. Based on their admission order, patients admitted from September 2021 to November 2021 were enrolled into the control group (n = 61) and patients admitted from December 2021 to March 2022 were enrolled in the intervention group (n = 61). Both groups received identical admission-based patient education, perioperative care, and discharge rehabilitation instructions. The control group received the traditional education method while the intervention group received a short-form educational video in addition to the traditional education method. Patient perioperative health knowledge and patient satisfaction with nursing care during treatment of lower limb fractures were compared across the two groups. RESULTS Preoperative health knowledge in the intervention group was 95.1%, compared to 82.0% in the control group (χ2 = 3.954, P<0.05). The Newcastle satisfaction with nursing scales score in the intervention group was (80.902 ± 7.016) points, compared to (78.131 ± 8.213) points in the control group. These group differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The application of a short-form educational video during the perioperative care of patients with lower limb fractures may improve patients' understanding of perioperative health and increase satisfaction with nursing care.
