About
This clinical trial compares an educational video intervention versus usual care of no video intervention in decreasing patient fear of a colonoscopy procedure after receiving a positive fecal immunochemical test (FIT). The lack of a follow-up colonoscopy after an abnormal FIT result is associated with an increased risk of colorectal cancer mortality, advanced-stage colorectal cancer, among other complications, compared to the completion of a follow-up colonoscopy. An educational video may reduce patient fear and increase knowledge, self-efficacy, and intent to complete a colonoscopy compared to the usual care of no video intervention.
Full description
OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.
ARM 1: Patients watch an educational video about the importance of abnormal FIT results, the implications if follow-up colonoscopy is not completed, and demonstrate the steps to complete a colonoscopy.
ARM 2: Patients receive usual care and do not watch the educational video.
After completion of study, patients are followed for 12 months after their abnormal FIT result.
