Background:
Report-back of research results is the sharing of research findings with participants to assess knowledge attainment and behavior change.
Objective:
To explore acceptability and usability of a brief video report-back for indoor air quality data among adults with uncontrolled asthma.
Methods:
Participants (n = 37) were emailed a link to a short video describing levels of volatile organic compounds and particulates assessed in their home. These data included measurements using an indoor air quality monitor over a 2-week period. Acceptability/usability were assessed using an 11-item electronic survey.
Results:
Each video was viewed twice, on average, (range 1-13 views) with a survey response rate of 43% (n = 16). Respondents noted high usability; agreed information was useful (94%), they would complete one or more action steps (75%), and recommended video report-back in future studies (88%).
Significance:
Video report-back can be a usable and acceptable approach for sharing air quality research findings with participants.
Trial Registration:
ClinicalTrials.gov NCT05224076; https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT05224076 IMPACT STATEMENT: This study explores the acceptability and usability of a brief video report-back for indoor air quality data results among adults with uncontrolled asthma in the United States. Video report-back can be a usable and acceptable approach for sharing research findings with participants. The video format for report-back offers an additional avenue for sharing environmental health data and has the potential to improve science communication and prompt behavior change. The video format for report-back can be an acceptable and usable format for sharing environmental health data and has the potential to improve science communication and prompt health behavior change.

01:20Assessment of Ventilation I: Respiratory Rate
A Ventilation assessment is critical for monitoring a patient's health status. Respiration, one of the most accessible vital signs, provides insights into the function of numerous body systems and can indicate serious health issues, such as brainstem injuries from head trauma.

Objectives and Importance:
The primary goal of respiratory assessment is to evaluate patients at early risk of clinical deterioration. Since respiratory distress often precedes other signs of declining health, breathing patterns and sounds become a...
01:29Assessment of Ventilation II: Respiratory Depth and Rhythm
Respiratory depth measures the volume of air inhaled or exhaled during a breath. It can vary from shallow to deep and typically remains consistent when a person is at rest or asleep. Occasionally, individuals will automatically inhale deeply, known as sighing, which inflates the lungs with more air than normal breathing.
To assess respiratory depth, observe the degree of chest excursion or movement:

Subjective Assessment: Nurses interview the patient to gather information directly during the subjective assessment. It includes questions about the individual's medical history, medications, and symptoms, focusing on past respiratory conditions like...
