Clinical Trial Summary

Audiovisual teaching aids can play a significant role for the retention of new material and help overcome barriers such as the physical presence or time restrictions of an instructor. In a clinical setting, multimedia health education can offer an advantage over traditional didactic teaching by engaging patients through visual content and unlimited accessibility.

A critical factor to long-term survival of solid organ transplant recipients is compliance to post-transplantation medication and follow-up patient care. Transplant pharmacists serve on multidisciplinary care teams as the medication experts that provide discharge education to recipients and caregivers often at the bedside. The adoption of digital multimedia content for patient education can increase engagement of diverse learning styles while simultaneously reducing potential time conflicts in hospital practice. This study contributes to the literature by assessing the effectiveness of discharge education video(s) on patient satisfaction and knowledge levels which are currently limited.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Patient Transplant Medication and Care Knowledge	Change in performance pre and post-education based on responses to questionnaire	Pre- and post-education; pre-education assessment will be completed as soon as feasible after transplant (estimate 1-3 days) and consent; post-education assessment will be completed as soon as is feasible after initial education (estimate 0-2 days)
Primary	Patient Satisfaction with Educational Method	Difference in satisfaction as determined by response to questionnaire post education. A single question score from 1 to 10 will be used, with 10 being highest satisfaction and 1 being the lowest level of satisfaction	As soon as feasible post-education, in concert with post-education knowledge assessment (estimate 0-2 days)
Secondary	Pharmacist Time Requirement	Time required by pharmacist for education	As soon as feasible post-education (estimate 0-2 days)
