Résumé

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with high risk of stroke and other thromboembolic complications. The OCULUS study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the three-dimensional (3D) movie in teaching patients about the consequences of AF and pharmacological stroke prevention. The study was based on a questionnaire and included 100 consecutive patients (38% women, 62% with AF history). Using the oculus glasses and a smartphone, a 3D movie describing the risk of stroke in AF was shown. Similar questions were asked immediately after, 1 week and 1 year after the projection. Before the projection 22/100 (22.0%) declared stroke a consequence of AF, while immediately after 83/100 (83.0%) (p < 0.0001) patients declared this consequence. Seven days after, stroke as AF consequence was chosen by 74/94 (78.7%) vs. 22/94 (23.4%) when compared to the baseline knowledge; p < 0.0001, a similar trend was also observed in 1-year follow-up (64/90 [71.1%] vs. 21/90 [23.3%]; p < 0.0001). Before the projection 88.3% (83/94) patients responded, that drugs may reduce the risk of stroke, and after 1 week the number of patients increased to (94/94 [100%]; p = 0.001). After 1 year 87/90 (96.7%) answered that drugs may diminish the risk of stroke (p = 0.02 in comparison to the baseline survey 78/90 [86.7%]). Use of oral anticoagulation to reduce the risk of stroke was initially chosen by 66/94 (70.2%), by 90/94 (95.7%; p < 0.0001) 7 days after and by 83/90 (92.2%; p < 0.0001) 1 year after. 3D movie is an effective tool in transferring knowledge about the consequences of AF and the pivotal role of oral anticoagulation in stroke prevention.

BACKGROUND
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with high risk of stroke and other thromboembolic complications. The OCULUS study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the three-dimensional (3D) movie in teaching patients about the consequences of AF and pharmacological stroke prevention.
METHODS
The study was based on a questionnaire and included 100 consecutive patients (38% women, 62% with AF history). Using the oculus glasses and a smartphone, a 3D movie describing the risk of stroke in AF was shown. Similar questions were asked immediately after, 1 week and 1 year after the projection.
RESULTS
Before the projection 22/100 (22.0%) declared stroke a consequence of AF, while immediately after 83/100 (83.0%) (p < 0.0001) patients declared this consequence. Seven days after, stroke as AF consequence was chosen by 74/94 (78.7%) vs. 22/94 (23.4%) when compared to the baseline knowledge; p < 0.0001, a similar trend was also observed in 1-year follow-up (64/90 [71.1%] vs. 21/90 [23.3%]; p < 0.0001). Before the projection 88.3% (83/94) patients responded, that drugs may reduce the risk of stroke, and after 1 week the number of patients increased to (94/94 [100%]; p = 0.001). After 1 year 87/90 (96.7%) answered that drugs may diminish the risk of stroke (p = 0.02 in comparison to the baseline survey 78/90 [86.7%]). Use of oral anticoagulation to reduce the risk of stroke was initially chosen by 66/94 (70.2%), by 90/94 (95.7%; p < 0.0001) 7 days after and by 83/90 (92.2%; p < 0.0001) 1 year after.
CONCLUSIONS
3D movie is an effective tool in transferring knowledge about the consequences of AF and the pivotal role of oral anticoagulation in stroke prevention.
