      Viewing Short Instructional Video.

AB  - Many individuals with Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency (AATD) are unaware of their 
      diagnosis. In the absence of an AATD diagnosis, irreversible damage continues, 
      and incorrect care is provided. Research demonstrates low levels of knowledge 
      about AATD among health care providers. To address this ongoing issue, a short 
      educational video was developed for health care providers with the goal of 
      increasing knowledge and testing for AATD. A five-question test on the video 
      material was developed. Invitations to participate in the study were sent via 
      email to providers at both public teaching hospitals and private practices across 
      the country. Respondents completed three parts online: pre-test, video, and 
      post-test. To confirm retention of knowledge gained, providers who completed all 
      three were invited to take the same test 3-6 months later. There were 683 
      providers who responded, and 213 completed all three portions; 105 of those 
      providers completed the 3-6-months of follow-up testing. The average pre-test 
      score of the 213 providers was 54.6% (std. dev. = 26.2%). The average post-test 
      score immediately following the video viewing was 74.7% (std. dev. = 27.7%). The 
      average follow-up test score 3-6 months later was 63.2% (std. dev. = 22.0%). 
      During the follow-up period, 11 providers reported testing for AATD for the first 
      time. This short educational video demonstrated both immediate and sustained 
      improvement in knowledge and an increase in testing for AATD. Short digital 
      videos may provide an effective platform for the ongoing effort to identify 
      individuals with AATD.
