Comparison of multimedia and printed patient education tools for patients with osteoporosis: a 6-month randomized controlled trial.
Researchers compared the efficacy of adding a multimedia patient education tool involving video modeling to a printed educational booklet on osteoporosis. Participants in the randomized controlled trial were post-menopausal women with osteoporosis. The researchers found that both multimedia and printed tools increased knowledge and decreased decisional conflict to the same extent, and neither of the educational materials proved to be better than the other. For women with limited health literacy, receiving the booklet alone was more effective in reducing decisional conflict after 6 months than the addition of the multimedia tool.
