简要总结
The investigators have created a brief, 3-minute video that discusses the induction of labor process. The aim of this study is to evaluate, via a randomized method, how this educational video impact's patients' knowledge and satisfaction with the induction of labor process.
Purpose: Evaluate how an educational video impacts patients' knowledge and satisfaction with the induction of labor process
Research questions:
- Does a brief educational video improve patients' baseline knowledge of the induction of labor process when compared to patients' who receive traditional care?
- Does a brief educational video improve patients' overall satisfaction with their delivery course when compared to patients' who received the standard care? Hypothesis: Those patients' shown a brief educational video will have a higher baseline knowledge about the induction process and higher satisfaction with their delivery course compared to patients who received the standard in-office counseling.
详细描述
Recruitment and Data Collection:
Patients were screened for study enrollment during routine prenatal visits at the George Washington University Hospital. A trained research team member met with and spoke to eligible patients about the randomized study at the time of their scheduled induction of labor visit. There was an induction of labor schedule that is created monthly, which the research team members had access to and determined when eligible participants had their induction of labor visit scheduled.
Informed consent was obtained from the patient if they were interested in participating. Privacy and confidentiality were assured as approved team members were the only individuals with access to patient records and maintained strict confidentiality. All consent forms were kept in a locked cabinet and survey responses were de-identified. Patients were able to ask questions and/or opt out of the study at any time.
The research team member assessed patient's understanding of the information and participation by asking them to describe in their own words what they were consenting to. Signed informed consent were obtained prior to study enrollment.
Once a patient was enrolled, they were randomized to the control group (no intervention) or the intervention group (3-minute educational video intervention). The randomization schedule was predetermined. The enrolled participant was given a pre-randomized study envelope that contained a unique Study ID number, randomization group, and paper surveys.

盲法说明
The research member enrolling the patient in the study, the participant, and the person collecting the questionnaires were all blind to what arm of the study the participant would be placed into (control vs intervention with video group). A computer-generated allocation sequence to determine randomization. Randomization assignments were placed in sealed, opaque envelopes that were opened sequentially after verbal and signed consent was obtained for the study. The research team members who collected the outcome data (example, parity, delivery method, etc) was also blind to which arm the participant was assigned too.

研究组 & 干预措施
Control Arm (Standard of Care)
The control group took the knowledge-based survey about induction of labor prior to meeting their provider (midwife or obstetrician) on the day of scheduled induction. Twenty-four to forty-eight hours after delivery, at a time convenient to the participant during the postpartum stay at GW, a research team member asked the participant to fill out a second survey, focused on satisfaction with the labor and delivery process.
Intervention Arm (Educational video)
The intervention group had the opportunity to watch the 3-minute educational video. The video shown to these participants is linked here: https://youtu.be/Pc9tcIV4Dm8. After watching the video, the participant was asked to take the knowledge-based survey. Twenty-four to forty-eight hours after delivery, at a time convenient to the participant during the postpartum stay at GW, a research team member asked the participant to fill out a second survey, focused on satisfaction.
干预措施: Educational Video (Behavioral)
结局指标
主要结局
Knowledge of Induction of Labor
时间窗: 3 minute knowledge based questionnaire given to both arms prior to meeting with a provider (midwife or obstetrician).
Evaluating if a 3-minute educational video changes patients' baseline knowledge of the induction of labor process when compared to patients' who receive traditional care via a questionnaire.
次要结局
- Satisfaction with Induction of Labor Process(3 minute satisfaction questionnaire given to both arms 24 to 48 hours after delivery at a time convenient for them.)
