Informed and Empowered: A Pre-Post Evaluation of a Whiteboard Video for Sexual Health Education in Female Adolescents and Young Adults with Cancer.

ABSTRACT: Adolescents and young adults (AYA) assigned female at birth with cancer face significant sexual health challenges, yet accessible, age-appropriate educational tools remain limited. This study evaluated a 13 min whiteboard video designed to improve sexual health knowledge. Female AYA patients aged 15-39 years across Canada completed pre- and post-video surveys assessing knowledge, attitudes, and satisfaction. The video's understandability and actionability were measured using the Patient Education Materials Assessment Tool for Audiovisual Materials (PEMAT-A/V), and readability was assessed using six standard metrics. Quantitative analyses included paired t-tests and regression modeling; qualitative responses were thematically coded. Ninety participants completed the study. Knowledge scores
