This study will investigate the potential impact of arts-informed, technology-based patient education material, and specifically, the role of multimedia imagery on patient comprehension, perceived satisfaction, anxiety levels, and informed decision-making.

Based on an inter-professional approach to support a new role in patient care, this research addresses both literacy and health literacy issues within the context of current challenges to healthcare delivery and associated fragmentation in continuity of care. Patient education is a key component in the delivery of comprehensive care and it is the potential for on-line patient education that provides the basis for research.

Evaluation of the Use of Multimedia to Enhance Patient and Family Understanding

A likert scale measuring the comprehension and retention of key concepts in the research study.

Traditional Decision Conflict Scale - The decisional conflict scale measures personal perceptions of: a) uncertainty in choosing options; b) modifiable factors contributing to uncertainty such as feeling uninformed, unclear about personal values and unsupported in decision making; and c) effective decision making such as feeling the choice is informed, values-based, likely to be implemented and expressing satisfaction.

A self-assessment scale that has been developed and found to be a reliable instrument for detecting states of depression and anxiety in the setting of a hospital medical outpatient clinic. This questionnaire is designed to help the doctor know how you feel.

The Hospital Anxiety and Depression (HAD) rating scale is a commonly used questionnaire. It is a screening questionnaire for psychiatric disorders.

We would like to know if the module helped the patient understand their disease and their available treatment options. It is a questionnaire to obtain feedback on its overall design.
