“…With advances in multimedia technology, modes of health education in hospitals are constantly changing, and many medical organizations in China have carried out multimedia video-based health education activities ( Yang et al, 2021 ). Animated health education videos based on multimedia broadcasting mitigate faults in traditional oral and educational manuals.…”

ObjectiveThis article explores the effect of preoperative health education, in the form of animation videos, on postoperative self-reported pain levels and anxiety in femoral fractures.MethodsNinety cases of femoral fracture were divided at random into the oral instruction group, the recorded video group, and the animation video group, with 30 cases in each group. Sociodemographic data were collected the day before surgery. Health education was then offered in one of three ways: orally, using a recorded video, or using an animation video. On days 2, 4, and 7 after surgery, the state-trait anxiety inventory (STAI) and the visual analog scale (VAS) were used to assess postoperative anxiety and pain levels, respectively, in the participants.ResultsAt different time points during the evaluation, total anxiety scores in the animation and recorded video groups were significantly lower than in the oral instruction group (P < 0.01), and the pairwise comparisons indicated statistically significant differences (F = 11.04, 10.06, 10.37, P < 0.01). However, the levels of postoperative pain in the animation and recorded video groups were not significantly different (P > 0.05). STAI scores in the three groups were found to have significant interactions with the measurement time (F = 6.74, P < 0.01). However, there were no apparent interactions between the VAS score and the measurement time (F = 1.31, P > 0.05) in the three groups.ConclusionPreoperative health education with the aid of multimedia is more effective than oral instruction in lowering patients’ postoperative anxiety and pain levels. In addition, animation videos are superior to recorded videos in mitigating postoperative anxiety. Whether the two approaches differ in reducing postoperative pain in bone fractures remains to be further tested.

“…Similar barriers were recorded in a previous study conducted to assess the benefits and burdens of wearing face masks in schools during the current Corona pandemic. 22 Our intervention produced significant changes in some of these barriers such as expensive medical masks, forgetfulness, feel of embarrassment and lack of comfort ability with presence of glasses through providing the following solutions: firstly, conducting cost benefit analysis for face mask use which concluded that face mask is the cheapest and most effective way of protecting oneself and others against the coronavirus even when using the costly medical masks. Secondly, directing towards rational use of face masks through training on when, where, how to use masks appropriately and safely and what type of mask should be worn to counteract the false belief of inevitability of use of expensive medical masks which can be replaced by reusable homemade masks.…”

Background: Teachers can play role models in following COVID-19 preventive measures and can act as supervisors ensuring students application of these measures. The practice of hand hygiene and mask use should be correct to achieve the desired effect. Objective: To assess the effect of health education intervention on Knowledge, Attitudes, Practices (KAP) of K-12 schools' teachers as regards hand hygiene and mask use. Methods: Interventional study was conducted from March 2021 to July 2021 on 98 teachers from K-12 schools in Zagazig city, Sharkia Governorate, Egypt. Participants were given health education intervention including practical training and eliminating barriers to hand hygiene and mask use. The effect of intervention was assessed through KAP questionnaire and observation checklist. Results: Following intervention, the percent of participants who achieved satisfactory knowledge, positive attitude, satisfactory self-reported and observed practices related to hand hygiene had increased from 33.7%, 34.7%, 29.6% and 32.6% to 67.4%, 84.7%, 72.4 and 76.5% respectively and that related to face mask use had increased from 29.6%, 46.9%, 37.7% and 28.6% to 78.6%, 85.7%,72.5% and 69.4% respectively, most barriers to hand hygiene and face mask use had significantly decreased. Despite positive correlation between post intervention knowledge, attitudes and practices related to hand hygiene and mask use, there were insignificant associations between them and all participants characteristics except association of satisfactory observed practices with gender, marital state, and social class. Conclusion: Health education intervention was effective in improving knowledge, attitudes and practices related to hand hygiene and mask use among K-12 schools' teachers.

IntroductionThe Healthy China Initiative emphasizes family health. Education is an upstream determinant of health, which can both achieve upward mobility and cause class solidification.MethodsUsing nationwide large-scale data collected in 2021, the present study explored the relationship between education and family health in the urban-rural dual society via Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition and propensity score matching.ResultsOur data revealed disparities in family health, educational attainment, household income, healthcare coverage, and job type between urban and rural China. An inverted U-shaped relationship existed between increasing years of education and family health. The upper limit was 17.1 years for urban residents and 13.7 years for rural residents, with limited health benefits from higher education obtained by rural residents. Mediated by work-family conflict, highly-educated people received gradually diminishing health returns. The results of the Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition showed that 25.8% of the urban-rural gap in family health could be explained by the disparity in education. Urban residents could translate cultural capital and economic capital into health capital to a greater extent. After propensity score matching, a robust, inverted U-shaped relationship was found between education and family health. The inverted U-shaped relationship was found to replace family health with self-rated health and quality of life.DiscussionFamily-centered public health and education programs, policies, and goals should be developed to break urban-rural dual structure barriers and advance social equity in China.
