Bridging the communication gap: What do primary healthcare practitioners in New Zealand know about health literacy? What are their attitudes towards it, and how do they implement any internationally developed health literacy tools?

<p>Health Literacy has been identified internationally as an important component of health equity. As a health consumer, being health literate includes having the ability to make an informed choice about health. As a healthcare provider or health educator, being health literate is having the ability to enable the consumer to become fully informed, even if there are barriers that complicate or hamper this ability. Many health literacy tools have been developed to support clinicians, including those in primary care, in communicating effectively with their patients. When properly utilised, these tools have the potential to improve the health outcomes of their patients and also to reduce health system costs. The literature produced about health literacy has seen exponential growth, especially over the last eight years, due to increased recognition of its contribution to better healthcare outcomes. This research examined whether General Practitioners (GPs) in New Zealand were aware of health literacy concepts and the specific tools that have been developed, and whether they were utilising them. Although some health literacy tools and strategies are being implemented by GPs, they are not necessarily realising this, as their concept of health literacy seems to be focused on the general literacy level of their patients. Health literacy tools identified tended to be in the form of print and online health education materials.</p>

Assessing the Impact of Online Health Education Interventions From 2010-2020: A Systematic Review of the Evidence

Objective: Systematically review the evaluation and impact of online health education interventions: assess approaches used, summarize main findings, and identify knowledge gaps. Data Source: We searched the following databases: EMBASE, ERIC, MEDLINE, and Web of Science. Study Inclusion and Exclusion Criteria: Studies were included if (a) published in English between 2010-2020 in a peer-reviewed journal (b) reported an online health education intervention aimed at consumers, caregivers, and the public (c) evaluated implementation OR participant outcomes (d) included ≥ 100 participants per study arm. Data Extraction: Two authors extracted data using a standardized form. Data Synthesis: Data synthesis was structured around the primary outcomes of the included studies. Results: 26 studies met the inclusion criteria. We found substantial heterogeneity in study population, design, intervention, and primary outcomes, and significant methodological issues that resulted in moderate to high risk of bias. Overall, interventions that were available to all (e.g., on YouTube) consistently attained a large global reach, and knowledge was consistently improved. However, the impact on other outcomes of interest (e.g., health literacy, health behaviors) remains unclear. Conclusion: Evidence around the impacts of the type of online health education interventions assessed in this review is sparse. A greater understanding of who online interventions work for and what outcomes can be achieved is crucial to determine, and potentially expand, their place in health education.

Using Website as a Source of Information on the Management of Health and Emergency Situations in Early Childhood

Background: Currently online health promotion can be found on various sites and social media. Health promotion in the form of health education using the internet is considered easier, faster, and cheaper. However, not many websites provide information about health and emergency management in children. Purpose: The implementation of community empowerment aims to increase the knowledge of parents and teachers in managing the health and emergencies of children aged 2-6 years online using the media website. Methods: Online health education is provided to participants as a form of community empowerment. Participants receive a website address that contains material on child health and emergency management. Furthermore, participants received an explanation of the material using the zoom application. The level of participant knowledge was evaluated by pre-test and post-test using Google form. The evaluation results were analyzed descriptively. Results: Online health education activities with website media showed an increase in teachers’ knowledge about health and emergency management in children (87.5%). This program also shows a decrease in the number of parents and teachers with low level knowledge (12.5%). Conclusion: The website can be used as an effective medium to provide health education for parents and teachers.

Exploring the Development of a Framework for Informal E-mentoring of Online Health Education Students: A Formative Evaluation [Research in Progress]

Aim/Purpose: The purpose of this pilot case study is to provide details on developing a framework for e-mentoring graduate level online health education students as an added component of an online health education course. Background: E-mentoring gives faculty the opportunity to share professional knowledge with students and impart practical experiences. In addition, faculty can show how the course content is teaching skills applicable to student’s personal and professional goals. There is an abundance of research and professional literature that includes mentoring of graduate students, but this literature base has not shown a development in a theory and models used in e-mentoring. As yet, however, literature dealing with e-mentoring the future health educator is scarce or nonexistent even though technology such as mobile apps, email, listservs, chat groups and conferencing could enhance the e-mentoring process. Methodology: The framework is described in the context of a curriculum development and a program planning model. Following the steps designed in this framework, mentees are guided through a course that begins with setting goals and ends with an evaluation process. The steps are similar to what health educator’s use in the program planning process, which is also a component of building a community program. The model uses both psychosocial variables that help build identity and coaching functions as a guide and to obtain measurements. Contribution: The study ends with a mix of evaluations that include the formative and sum-mative evaluations. A formative evaluation is conducted throughout the pro-cess. A summative evaluation will be conducted at the end to gain feedback. For the summative evaluation, constructs from the mentoring scale will be used. Findings: This case study was prepared to serve as a basis for discussion rather than to illustrate either effective or ineffective e-mentoring process for health educators.

Analysis of YouTube Brazilian videos as a source of information about diabulimia (Preprint)

BACKGROUND YouTube consist of a video publishing tool available in cyberspace with unrestricted, decentralized and interactive access. The YouTube plataform offers thousands of videos to acquire knowledge and virtual interaction between people. It is known that sharing videos is a resource that can influence patient behavior. Studies show the importance of YouTube as a source of useful information about some diseases, including Diabetes Mellitus (DM). However, no study has evaluated the use of YouTube as a source of information on diabulimia, a term used to describe the intentional omission of insulin in individuals with DM type 1 as a strategy for weight loss. OBJECTIVE In this study, our aim was to research the source and audience of videos on YouTube Brazil regarding diabulimia. METHODS The YouTube site was searched on March 18, 2017, for two associated keyword terms "Diabulimia and Diabetes". Videos not recorded in Brazilian Portuguese language and those not related to the focus were excluded. Were included the videos associated with the terms and available on YouTube. Video links were recorded and analyzed independently by E.S. and G.K.C.C. Were recorded the following criteria for all videos: upload date, number of views, duration, likes, dislikes, and comments. The source of the videos was categorized into three groups: patients, health professionals and others sources. RESULTS The search resulted in a total of 427 videos, of which 417 (97.66%) were excluded (332 in English, 83 in Spanish, 1 in Danish, and 1 in Portuguese from Portugal). Then, 10 (2.34%) videos were pre-selected and analyzed. This videos were uploaded to YouTube between 2007 and 2016, and showed the following metrics: 10.303 views; 707 likes; 11 dislikes, and 115 comments. The total run time of the videos was 5 minutes and 22 seconds. The source of the videos revealed the following classification: professionals (30%, doctors), patients (20%) and others sources (50%, including advertisement, TV programm, etc.). Only two Brazilian videos related diabulimia with DM. CONCLUSIONS This research showed that YouTube in Brazil is little used, both in the availability of videos and in the search for information that associates diabulimia with DM. This finding admits the YouTube's potential as a tool for use in health education about this theme. There were contributions from health professionals in the process of transmitting videos on YouTube Brazil, but the videos of advertisements and the videos of reports were predominat. This result is worrying because it configures serious risks of transmission with inaccurate or misleading information about DM and diabulimia on the Internet. Thus, we emphasize the need to produce videos about diabulimia for use in diabetes online health education in Brazil.
