A Literature Review on the Efficacy of Video in Patient Education.

Gagliano, Martha E.

Journal of Medical Education, v63 n10 p785-92 Oct 1988

A review of 25 studies of the use of videotapes in patient education found that while the technique increases patient short-term knowledge, it is no better than traditional methods in increasing long-term knowledge or promoting compliance with medical regimens. Its strength appears to be in role-modeling. (Author/MSE)
