“…Figure 1 details the five stages used to identify the citations for this review. Of the 16 papers selected, 5 [ 6 , 8 , 9 , 65 , 66 ] came from stages 1 and 2, 6 [ 7 , 67 - 71 ] were identified at stage 3 and a further 5 [ 72 - 74 ] (2 of which [ 75 , 76 ] document all or part of a study already added at stage 3) were found in stage 4. In other words, approximately one third of papers were found through database searches; the remaining papers emerged through reference lists and as citing papers.…”

BackgroundInteractive multimedia is an emerging technology that is being used to facilitate interactions between patients and health professionals. The purpose of this review was to identify and evaluate the impact of multimedia interventions (MIs), delivered in the context of paediatric healthcare, in order to inform the development of a MI to promote the communication of dietetic messages with overweight preadolescent children. Of particular interest were the effects of these MIs on child engagement and participation in treatment, and the subsequent effect on health-related treatment outcomes.MethodsAn extensive search of 12 bibliographic databases was conducted in April 2012. Studies were included if: one or more child-participant was 7 to 11-years-of-age; a MI was used to improve health-related behaviour; child-participants were diagnosed with a health condition and were receiving treatment for that condition at the time of the study. Data describing study characteristics and intervention effects on communication, satisfaction, knowledge acquisition, changes in self-efficacy, healthcare utilisation, and health outcomes were extracted and summarised using qualitative and quantitative methods.ResultsA total of 14 controlled trials, published between 1997 and 2006 met the selection criteria. Several MIs had the capacity to facilitate engagement between the child and a clinician, but only one sought to utilise the MI to improve communication between the child and health professional. In spite of concerns over the quality of some studies and small study populations, MIs were found useful in educating children about their health, and they demonstrated potential to improve children’s health-related self-efficacy, which could make them more able partners in face-to-face communications with health professionals.ConclusionsThe findings of this review suggest that MIs have the capacity to support preadolescent child-clinician communication, but further research in this field is needed. Particular attention should be given to designing appropriate MIs that are clinically relevant.

“…The intervention group showed an increase in asthma knowledge, reduced asthma morbidity, and reduced emergency room costs following program completion [79]. A follow-up study of the IMPACT program evaluated lung function, children's and parents' perception of the program, as well as the elements evaluated in the initial study [80]. The follow-up study reported results similar to the 2003 study, although it was found that children's lung function did not statistically increase [80].…”

Children who use electronic education programs showed increased behavioral asthma self-management and needed less inhaled corticosteroids while maintaining the same levels of lung functioning after completing the electronic program [80].…”

Audience, Content, Media: A Literature Review about Factors to Consider When Designing Technology Based Asthma Education Programs for Children

Childhood asthma is a growing societal problem that causes suffering for children and families. Short of finding a cure, the best way to address this problem is to give children with asthma the resources they need to control their condition. Unfortunately, research and resources for young children with asthma are lacking. The authors hypothesize that an approach using technology based delivery methods to provide age-appropriate education, which promotes self-regulation and includes psychosocial elements, could help children with asthma decrease exacerbations in the short term and establish healthy habits in the long term. To lay the groundwork for the initial investigation of this hypothesis, the authors reviewed the literature for three elements: audience (children with asthma), content (self-regulation and psychosocial elements), and media (mobile technology applications and digital story). Literature was reviewed for children's beliefs about illness and medication, self-regulation versus selfmanagement, the psychosocial elements of parental support and peer influences, technology and education, clinical computer-based education, electronic educational games, and smartphone applications. The gaps in the literature found regarding these topics point to areas where future research would be instructive for designing effective, technology based applications for children with asthma. To produce the most effective asthma education materials for children, all three elements in this literature review-audience, content, and medium-should be investigated in future research studies.

“…However, with the introduction and progress in electronic media technologies, health professionals have seized the opportunity to utilize these mediums to try to provide more innovative ways of supporting patients. Electronic media technologies are media that use electronics for the end user to access the content; the use of such technologies in healthcare has evolved from creating simple videos containing post treatment advice (Bakker, van de Putte, Kuis, & Sinnema, 2011) to the development of hi-tech multimedia programs Krishna, Balas, Francisco, & Konig, 2006). Two previous Cochrane reviews on electronic media technologies have included studies spanning a wide age range (children and adults) and involved single modes of support: mobile phone messaging (de Jongh, Gurol-Urganci, Vodopivec-Jamsek, Car, & Atun, 2012) and computer-based applications (Murray, Burns, See Tai, Lai, & Nazareth, 2005).…”
