Teen-to-Teen Videos to Improve Electronic Medical Record Portal Knowledge and Personal Health Information Engagement

October 20, 2023 updated by: Huang, Jeannie, M.D.

Examining the Effects of MyChart Peer Education on Adolescent Health Literacy and Engagement With Personal Health Information

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare whether videos help teens better understand medical topics. The main questions answered in this trial are:

  1. whether videos can improve teen knowledge about electronic medical record portals
  2. whether videos can improve teen knowledge about general health issues

Participants will answer surveys and watch videos as part of this study.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Investigators performed a randomized controlled trial of education videos addressing one of two topics: A) electronic medical record portals and information shared therein and B) general adolescent health issues among adolescents and young adults with inflammatory bowel diseases. Investigators evaluated the efficacy of each in increasing participant knowledge in that arena.
