Article Abstract

Aim: We examined the effectiveness of a video-enhanced education package in improving caregiver outcomes (number of steps at first feeding attempt, time to achieve competency and knowledge) compared to the current institutional training approach.

Design: Quasi-experiment.

Methods: From August 2016-June 2017, we recruited 112 caregivers in a Singaporean tertiary hospital. We allocated 72 and 40 caregivers to video-enhanced and standard education, respectively. Median values are reported with interquartile ranges (IQR), and analysed using Mann-Whitney U test.

Results: Caregivers taught with our video-enhanced package performed a median of 7.0 (IQR = 3.5-7.5) out of eight steps correctly at their first attempt, a 40% increase. There was no change in the median number of training sessions but the 75th percentile dropped to 9.3 from 6.0, a 35% reduction. Post-training knowledge improved from a median of 0.5 (IQR = 0-2.0) to 1.0 (IQR = 0-3.0). The video-enhanced package can improve caregivers' knowledge and accelerate their skill competency.

Purpose: To understand what portions of the surgical day patients remember, what parts of an e-mailed media package regarding their surgery patients are used, and how that information affects their surgical experience.

Methods: Patients undergoing an outpatient arthroscopic procedure were approached in the preoperative area and asked to remember 3 words. Postoperatively, they were seen by the surgeon to discuss surgical findings and instructions.

Musculoskeletal fitness is important for adults with intellectual disabilities (ID) to maintain cardiovascular fitness, functional independence, and work task performance, and to reduce the risk of chronic diseases and other disabilities. However, adults with ID typically have significantly lower musculoskeletal fitness compared with their peers without a disability. Appropriate instructional strategies are needed to facilitate their acquisition and maintenance of musculoskeletal fitness.

Adults with intellectual disability have significantly lower musculoskeletal fitness than their peers without a disability. Appropriate instructional strategies are needed to facilitate their acquisition and maintenance of musculoskeletal fitness. In this multiple-baseline across-participants single-subject study, the authors evaluated the effects of a multicomponent package that included a video-enhanced system of least-to-most prompts on the acquisition of 5 muscle-strengthening exercises in 3 women with mild intellectual disability, age 24-37 yr.
