Effect of a Semiotically-Optimized Video Education Model on Post-Stroke Rehabilitation
Sponsor: Xiamen University
Summary
Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Many stroke survivors face difficulties with daily activities, sleep problems, anxiety, and depression during recovery. Health education videos can help patients learn about rehabilitation, but standard videos often contain too much information and are hard for patients to follow. This study aims to test whether using semiotics - the science of signs and symbols - to redesign health education videos can help stroke patients better comprehend and apply rehabilitation instructions. The study is designed to include 200 stroke patients at Siping Central Hospital in Jilin Province, China. Patients will be randomly assigned to either the semiotic-optimized video group or the standard health education video group. Outcome measures, including activities of daily living, sleep quality, anxiety, depression, and satisfaction with care, will be assessed before and after the intervention to evaluate the effectiveness of the optimized video education model.
