Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of brief organ donation video interventions on consent for organ donation among college and university students. Our hypothesis is that the organ donation video interventions will be superior to lay health websites for increasing organ donation consent.

Description:

This randomized controlled trial will involve 600 intervention and 600 control university students. Students will be randomized to 1 of 3 arms: a 5-minute video by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, a 5-minute video by the study principal investigator, or a health-related website by the Centers for Disease Control. After viewing the intervention, participants will be asked questions including whether they would like to consent to organ donation on their state electronic registry.
