A Mixed Methods Assessment of Home-Based Video Pretransplant Lung Education.

ABSTRACT: Introduction: Patients awaiting lung transplantation must learn new information to successfully navigate the transplant process. A supplemental video series was piloted to patients at home during the Covid-19 pandemic to improve pre-transplant education. Methods: A mixed methods study was undertaken to assess patient experiences with this method of education, confirm the ideal timing of the education, and identify gaps that require further attention. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 17 one-on-one or dyadic (patients and caregivers) who viewed the video series at home. A third-party researcher (not involved in creation of the educational materials) conducted the interviews by phone, which were audio recorded and then transcribed verbatim. NVivo 12 Pro for Windows
