Development and pilot testing of multimedia patient education tools for patients with knee osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, and rheumatoid arthritis.
Researched developed multimedia educational tools that incorporated videos to help patients understand their chronic diseases including osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, and rheumatoid arthritis. Tools were developed in English and Spanish. A total of 60 patients (20 per disease) were recruited to see the videos and were interviewed after all. All participants gave them a favorable rating and felt it helped them understand the disease, the importance of taking their medications, and seeing their doctor regularly. They found the videos and accompanying materials easy to use and easy to understand.

English language proficiency, health literacy, and trust in physician are associated with shared decision making in rheumatoid arthritis.
The objective of this study was to examine patterns of perceived communication around decision making in 2 cohorts of adults with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The investigators found that nearly one-third of subjects reported suboptimal shared decision making communication (SDM) with their clinicians, regardless of cohort. Lower trust in physician was independently associated with suboptimal SDM communication in both cohorts.
