Abstract
Background:
Shared decision-making (SDM) is becoming more popular in various medical specialties as a core component of patient-centered care. However, patients’ lack of sufficient disease knowledge remains a barrier to implementing SDM.
Objectives:
This study aims to examine the effectiveness of two educational approaches for atopic dermatitis (AD) patients, a pamphlet and pamphlet plus video, using assessments of knowledge level and satisfaction.
Methods:
From August 2021 to February 2023, patients with AD from the dermatology outpatient clinic at Tri-Service General Hospital were included. Educational pamphlets were provided before educational videos, and patients were asked to complete an identical five-question test postpamphlet and postpamphlet plus video, respectively. A questionnaire was used to evaluate patients’ satisfaction. The two test scores were compared, and the satisfaction levels were analyzed.
Results:
The mean postpamphlet plus video score (94.84 ± 10.20) was significantly higher than the mean postpamphlet score (77.42 ± 17.17, P < 0.001) across 62 eligible samples. Gender and age subgroups showed similar trends. In addition, most patients preferred educational pamphlet plus videos (ranging from 37.5% to 75.0% in different subgroups) compared with educational pamphlets (ranging from 0.0% to 3.85%). The educational pamphlet plus video demonstrated high satisfaction in promoting disease knowledge and treatment options for AD.
Conclusion:
Adding educational video is an efficient approach toward reinforcement of patients’ knowledge of AD and further facilitates the implementation of SDM in dermatology practice.
