Abstract

Purpose of review: Currently, there are number of initiatives underway across the world to remove barriers and increase education about living donation and living donor transplantation, including among professionals. Widespread use of the internet and social media (SoMe) started a new era of online information sharing. Extensive studies have highlighted the significant role of visual abstracts (VAs) and infographics in disseminating medical information including related to donation and transplantation. SoMe can foster networking and collaboration between transplant professionals across the globe.

Recent findings: The American Society of Transplantation Living Donor Community of Practice (LDCOP) Multimedia Workgroup (MMWG) was established to support the LDCOP's professional education mission by providing audiovisual support for various initiatives using visual abstracts, infographics, and professional community engagement. The MMWG employs rigorous multi-layered vetting by professionals with academic expertise to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the content, pioneering a model for creating visual educational content, collaborative learning and skill-building across experience levels.

Summary: In this perspective review, we summarize the history of a professional society multimedia work group and our experience building a multimedia approach to living donation education for transplant professionals.

移植专业人员活体捐赠教育的多媒体途径：建立一个专业学会多媒体工作组。

综述目的：目前，世界各地正在开展多项举措，以消除障碍，加强对活体捐献和活体移植的教育，包括专业人员之间的教育。互联网和社交媒体的广泛使用开启了在线信息共享的新时代。广泛的研究强调了视觉摘要（VAs）和信息图表在传播医学信息（包括与捐赠和移植相关的信息）方面的重要作用。有些可以促进全球移植专业人员之间的网络和合作。最近的发现：美国移植协会活体供体实践社区（LDCOP）多媒体工作组（MMWG）的成立是为了支持LDCOP的专业教育使命，通过使用视觉摘要、信息图表和专业社区参与为各种倡议提供视听支持。MMWG由具有学术专长的专业人员进行严格的多层审查，以确保内容的可靠性和准确性，开创了创建视觉教育内容、协作学习和跨经验水平技能培养的模式。摘要：在这篇综述中，我们总结了一个专业协会多媒体工作组的历史，以及我们为移植专业人员建立活体捐赠教育的多媒体方法的经验。
