Objective: To gain retina physicians' and diabetic retinopathy (DR) patients' perspectives on needs and opportunities in DR education, and then develop and pilot test an educational video. Design: This study utilised qualitative interview data for video creation, and interview and survey data for assessment. Setting: This study was conducted in a single large academic medical centre. Method: We conducted semi-structured interviews with attending retina physicians and DR patients (Cohort A) which were coded for themes about needs in DR patient education. Using these interviews, we designed and piloted a 6-minute user-centred animated video among a second patient cohort (Cohort B), who completed post-intervention interviews. Results: Four physicians and 14 DR patients participated in the study. Themes from Cohort A included accessible information, early management, lifestyle factors and emotional context. Physician themes included effective communication, visual information delivery and individual-level diabetes management. Cohort B commented on the subsequently created video's improved accessibility, engagement and supplementation of their existing DR knowledge. Conclusion: Physicians and patients showed an interest in video education and identified unique educational needs. We used these insights to create a video that demonstrated positive patient uptake. Close attention to retina physicians' and DR patients' perspectives can offer a valuable approach in developing materials to increase patients' health knowledge. Within the context studied, videos may be more accessible and engaging than the use of traditional print-based education materials. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
