Primary outcomes

  1. Improvement in Scores on HCV Knowledge Questionnaire

    Time frame: Pre-intervention, Immediate post-intervention, and 1 mo. follow up

    The main outcome measure was a change in the mean score on a 25-item HCV knowledge assessment without subscales. The instrument values ranged from 0 to 25 with one point per correct answer to questions directly arising from the information contained in the video. One point was assigned to each correct answer, and an increase in the score indicated more correct responses.
