The Development and Testing of an Educational Video for Patients With End Stage Kidney Disease Receiving Dialysis in Two Tertiary Hospitals in Cape Town
Medical nutrition therapy plays a crucial role in managing end-stage kidney disease. Nutrition education should be comprehensible, positive, and actionable. Storytelling can provide context, aid comprehension and retention of new information, and foster a sense of connection among patients. The study aimed to develop a video based on the “Healthy Eating in Kidney Disease” infographic and to test the knowledge of patients before and after watching the video. The study investigated the association between factors such as the number of years receiving dialysis, income, and education level on pre- and postvideo scores.
