We aimed to develop a video animation knowledge translation (KT) resource to explain the purpose, use and importance of evidence synthesis to the public regarding healthcare decision-making.
We drew on a user-centred design approach to develop a spoken animated video (SAV) by conducting two cycles of idea generation, prototyping, user testing, analysis, and refinement. Six researchers identified the initial key messages of the SAV and informed the first draft of the storyboard and script. Seven members of the public provided input on this draft and the key messages through think-aloud interviews, which we used to develop an SAV prototype. Seven additional members of the public participated in think-aloud interviews while watching the video prototype. All members of the public also completed a questionnaire on perceived usefulness, desirability, clarity and credibility. We subsequently synthesised all data to develop the final SAV.
Researchers identified the initial key messages as 1) the importance of evidence synthesis, 2) what an evidence synthesis is and 3) how evidence synthesis can impact healthcare decision-making. Members of the public rated the initial video prototype as 9/10 for usefulness, 8/10 for desirability, 8/10 for clarity and 9/10 for credibility. Using their guidance and feedback, we produced a three-and-a-half-minute video animation. The video was uploaded on YouTube, has since been translated into two languages, and viewed over 12,000 times to date.
Drawing on user-centred design methods provided a structured and transparent approach to the development of our SAV. Involving members of the public enhanced the credibility and usefulness of the resource. Future work could explore involving the public from the outset to identify key messages in developing KT resources explaining methodological topics. This study describes the systematic development of a KT resource with limited resources and provides transferrable learnings for others wishing to do similar.
我们旨在开发一种视频动画知识转化（KT）资源，向公众解释证据综合在医疗保健决策中的目的、用途和重要性。
我们采用以用户为中心的设计方法，通过两轮创意生成、原型制作、用户测试、分析和完善来制作一个有声动画视频（SAV）。六名研究人员确定了SAV的初始关键信息，并为故事板和脚本的初稿提供了信息。七名公众通过出声思考访谈对该初稿和关键信息提供了意见，我们利用这些意见开发了一个SAV原型。另外七名公众在观看视频原型时参与了出声思考访谈。所有公众还完成了一份关于感知有用性、可取性、清晰度和可信度的问卷。我们随后综合所有数据来制作最终的SAV。
研究人员确定的初始关键信息为：1）证据综合的重要性，2）什么是证据综合，以及3）证据综合如何影响医疗保健决策。公众对初始视频原型的有用性评分为9/10，可取性评分为8/10，清晰度评分为8/10，可信度评分为9/10。利用他们的指导和反馈，我们制作了一个三分半钟的视频动画。该视频已上传到YouTube，至今已被翻译成两种语言，观看次数超过12000次。
采用以用户为中心的设计方法为我们的SAV开发提供了一种结构化且透明的方法。让公众参与提高了该资源的可信度和有用性。未来的工作可以探索从一开始就让公众参与，以确定在开发解释方法学主题的KT资源时的关键信息。本研究描述了在资源有限的情况下KT资源的系统开发，并为其他希望开展类似工作的人提供了可借鉴的经验。
