Comparison of Patient Understanding and Anxiety According to the Delivery Method of Educational Videos
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
AI-based educational video: Standardized 5-minute educational video delivered via AI-generated avatar to explain radiotherapy procedures, expected side effects, and self-care information. Designed to improve patient understanding and reduce anxiety.
Conventional educational video (PPT + narration): 5-minute educational video using PowerPoint slides with voice narration covering identical content as the AI-based video, including radiotherapy procedures, side effects, and self-care information.
Study summary
This study aims to evaluate whether a generative artificial intelligence (AI)-based educational video is more effective than a conventional video in improving patient understanding and reducing anxiety before radiation therapy.
In this prospective, randomized controlled study, participants will be assigned in a 1:1 ratio to either an AI-based avatar video group or a conventional video group consisting of PowerPoint slides with voice narration. Both videos will be standardized to have similar duration (approximately 5 minutes), identical key messages, and the same summary points.
After providing informed consent, participants will complete questionnaires before and after watching the assigned video, as well as during the first week of treatment. Outcomes will include anxiety levels, knowledge comprehension, and satisfaction with the educational video.
A total of 136 patients scheduled to undergo radiation therapy will be enrolled from two institutions. The findings of this study are expected to provide evidence on the effectiveness of AI-based educational tools in enhancing patient education and reducing pre-treatment anxiety.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Anxiety score (APAIS) — T1(Immediately after the intervention /during the pre-treatment consultation visit)
Anxiety will be measured using the Amsterdam Preoperative Anxiety and Information Scale (APAIS) (total score range: 6-30; higher scores indicate greater anxiety). Change from baseline will be analyzed using a linear mixed model.
