Generative AI-Based Health Education for Older Adults With Sarcopenic Obesity
Sponsor: Taipei Medical University
Summary
Sarcopenic obesity is a major public health concern among community-dwelling older adult populations.Encouraging healthy behavior modification through health education emerges as an effective strategy for preventing and treating sarcopenic obesity. Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) offers an innovative opportunity to tailor health education for aging populations. This study aims to explore the effectiveness of Personalized AI-generated Multimedia Health Education in community-dwelling older adults with sarcopenic obesity. The study comprises two phases, with 280 participants in Study 1 and 180 in Study 2.Study 1, a cluster randomized controlled trial, explores the feasibility, acceptability, and efficacy of different AI-generated multimedia, including images, sounds, and videos. Study 2 employs a three-armed,individually randomized controlled trial design, creating Personalized AI-generated Multimedia Health Education based on participant preferences. All materials focus on behavioral risk factors, delivered by social media-based AI chatbots. The intervention is conducted once a day, five days a week for 12 weeks.Structured questionnaires and objective instruments collect data before and after the intervention. The study outcome includes behavioral and psychological factors, quality of life, and sarcopenic obesity indicators. Statistical analyses include descriptive analyses, Chi-square tests, t-tests, One-way analysis of variance, path models, and generalized estimating equations. This study anticipates that Personalized AI-generated Multimedia Health Education will be a feasible, acceptable, and effective intervention for older adults. The study results are expected to demonstrate a significant improvement in study outcomes in the experimental group. Personalized AI-generated multimedia health education could be an easy-to-use,enjoyable, and effective strategy for health promotion and sarcopenic obesity prevention.

Conditions
Interventions
Generative AI-based text materials
Participants receive a text message regarding the health education topic.
Generative AI-based video materials
Participants receive a video message , accompanied by AI-generated background music at the beginning and end. Male avatars are used for PA and SO education, and female avatars are used for HD education.
Generative AI-based images materials
Participants receive one Gen-AI-generated image concerning the health education topic, formatted as a health poster.
Generative AI-based voice materials
Participants receive a podcast-style voice message regarding the health education topic. The recording incorporates AI-generated background voice. Male voices are utilized for physical activity (PA) education, while female voices are used for healthy diet (HD) and sarcopenic obesity (SO) education.
Non-Personalized Gen-AI MHE
Participants receive non-personalized multimodal health education generated by generative AI.
Personalized Gen-AI MHE
Participants receive personalized multimodal health education tailored through generative AI.
