Why the study?
Anxiety and knowledge gaps adversely affect treatment decisions, and physicians may find it challenging to address all aspects of TAVI for aortic stenosis in busy clinical settings.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Anxiety and gaps in medical knowledge have been shown to adversely affect treatment decisions amongst patients and their next-of-kin (NOK).1-3 In a busy clinical setting, physicians may find it time-consuming and challenging to address all aspects of a complex procedure, like transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) for the treatment of aortic stenosis (AS). We aim to evaluate the effectiveness of an online patient education video in improving patient and NOKs’ knowledge and reducing their anxiety for TAVI.
