Key Insights and Implementation of a Patient-Centered Education Video For Managing Acute Radiation Dermatitis in Breast Cancer: A Single-Center Pilot Study
The in-house educational video enhanced patients' understanding of RT and provided emotional support, with efficacy unaffected by patient characteristics or fractionation. Patients valued QR code access. The timing of watching the video was crucial. Continuous, accessible educational materials were important as symptoms worsened at the first follow-up. This study paved the way for future clinical trials and educational tools for breast cancer patients in radiation oncology departments.
