BREAST CANCER
Among breast cancer patients who received radiotherapy for the first time, we observed a higher level of engagement with multimedia teaching materials in terms of self-care comprehension, with 100% completion, compared to only 45% for the health education leaflets. Our results also indicated significant improvements in comprehension rates for both groups, although the patients who received multimedia teaching materials showed higher rates of improvement. Using multimedia tools has several advantages, including providing customized, step-by-step training based on individual educational needs and feedback. This can help patients adhere to medical instructions and improve their self-care performance. However, in terms of nursing staff satisfaction, those who implemented multimedia teaching materials reported lower satisfaction compared to those who used traditional health education leaflets. This suggests that when implementing multimedia materials for self-care education, it is important for the nursing staff to pay attention to communication with patients in order to maintain the overall quality of medical care.
