“…Bytzer and Lindeberg (2007) also reported the ineffectiveness of educations provided verbally and through video presentation in alleviating anxiety among gastroscopy candidates (16). Poursharifi et al (2013) and Luo (2013) also showed that written and verbal educations had no significant effect on endoscopy-related anxiety (5,13). All these findings are in line with our findings.…”

“…As the main cause of anxiety is the lack of knowledge about the procedure, providing patients with necessary information can enhance their endoscopy-related knowledge, alleviate their anxiety, and improve their satisfaction. Previous studies showed that providing verbal educations to patients by the treating physicians (8) and nurses (4,(8)(9)(10) through written materials such as pamphlets and brochures (11)(12)(13)(14)(15) or video presentation (16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24) can significantly alleviate anxiety and improve satisfaction among patients.

Background: Endoscopy is a diagnostic tool, which causes its candidates different levels of anxiety. Anxiety can reduce patients' tolerance and cooperation and increase the likelihood of endoscopy-related complications. One strategy to alleviate anxiety is patient education. However, previous studies reported conflicting findings about the most appropriate patient education method. Objectives: This study aimed at examining the effects of video-and pamphlet-based patient educations on anxiety and satisfaction among candidates for gastroscopy. Methods: This quasi-experimental study was conducted on 90 patients referred to the endoscopy unit of Valiasr hospital in Birjand city, Iran. The patients were selected through convenience sampling method and randomly allocated to a video, pamphlet, or control group. Data were collected using a demographic questionnaire, a researcher-made questionnaire for satisfaction assessment, and the Spielberger's state-trait anxiety inventory. One day before gastroscopy, the participants completed the demographic questionnaire and Spielberger's state-trait anxiety inventory. Then, educations were provided to them. In the day of their gastroscopy, their anxiety was reassessed both two to three hours before and immediately after the procedure. Collected data were entered into the SPSS software version 15. As all study variables had normal distribution, the data were analyzed by performing the one-way analysis of variance, the Tukey's post hoc, the paired-and independent-sample t test, the chi-square, and Fisher's exact tests at a significance level of less than 0.05. Results: The groups did not differ significantly from each other regarding the pretest and posttest values of total, state, and trait anxiety. However, the level of patient satisfaction in the video group was significantly greater than the control and pamphlet groups (P < 0.05). Moreover, patient satisfaction was not significantly correlated with patients' demographic characteristics. Conclusions: Video-based patient education can improve patient satisfaction among candidates for gastroscopy.

“…This written educational material was especially critical to reduce the anxiety level in patients who underwent endoscopic biopsy and were more likely to have fear about a diagnosis of uncertain disease. 6 The method and timing of providing information to patients prior to endoscopic procedures are most important. If the information is offered to the patients in an inadequate way, the patients' anxiety may increase.…”

“…Educating patients about gastroscopy or colonoscopy in advance of the procedure, with written educational material or oral explanation, reduces patients' anxiety. 6 However, there is a lack of research about the effects on patients' anxiety of providing written educational material after biopsy during gastroscopy or colonoscopy.…”

Computer-assisted instruction before colonoscopy is as effective as nurse counselling, a clinical pilot trial

Background and study aims Better patient education prior to colonoscopy improves adherence to instructions for bowel preparation and leads to cleaner colons. We reasoned that computer assisted instruction (CAI) using video and 3 D animations followed by nurse contact maximizes the effectiveness of nurse counselling, increases proportion of clean colons and improves patient experience. Patients and methods Adults referred for colonoscopy in a high-volume endoscopy unit in the Netherlands were included. Exclusion criteria were illiteracy in Dutch and audiovisual handicaps. Patients were prospectively divided into 2 groups, 1 group received nurse counselling and 1 group received CAI and a nurse contact before colonoscopy. The main outcome, cleanliness of the colon during examination, was measured with Ottawa Bowel Preparation Scale (OBPS) and Boston Bowel Preparation Scale (BBPS). We assessed patient comfort and anxiety at 3 different time points. Results We included 385 patients: 197 received traditional nurse counselling and 188 received CAI. Overall patient response rates were 99 %, 76.4 % and 69.9 % respectively. Endoscopists scored cleanliness in 60.8 %. Comparative analysis of the 39.2 % of patients with missing scores showed no significant difference on age, gender or educational level. Baseline characteristics were evenly distributed over the groups. Bowel cleanliness was satisfactory and did not differ amongst groups: nurse vs. CAI group scores in BBPS: (6.54 ± 1.69 vs. 6.42 ± 1.62); OBPS: (6.07 ± 2.53 vs. 5.80 ± 2.90). Patient comfort scores were significantly higher (4.29 ± 0.62 vs. 4.42 ± 0.68) in the CAI group shortly before colonoscopy. Anxiety and knowledge scores were similar. Conclusion CAI is a safe and practical tool to instruct patients before colonoscopy. We recommend the combination of CAI with a short nurse contact for daily practice.

Effects of written plus oral information vs. oral information alone on precolonoscopy anxiety

Abstract: There was a trend that information had a positive effect on patients' state anxiety. Future information provision studies may need to add more interactive methods appropriately and take patients' gender, educational level and coping style into consideration.
