SUMMARY:PS7 - Enhancing Informed Decision-Making on Whole Grain Diets: A P
 atient-Centered Approach
DESCRIPTION:Poster Presentation\n\nBrittany Nelson and Erich Petushek (Mic
 higan Technological University)\n\nContext: The importance of dietary choi
 ces in reducing the risk of chronic health conditions, such as cancer and 
 heart disease, is well-established. However, a persistent challenge remain
 s in encouraging individuals to make healthier dietary decisions. To addre
 ss this issue, we propose a novel intervention grounded in behavior change
  science and Human-Centered Design (HCD) principles, tailored to the conte
 xt of patient safety and equitable care.\nObjective: This research introdu
 ces a comprehensive approach that combines the Behavior Change Wheel (BCW)
  framework with Human-Centered Design principles to develop a highly usabl
 e video intervention. Our primary goal is to empower college students to m
 ake informed decisions regarding whole-grain dietary choices to establish 
 lifelong, health-promoting habits.\nDesign: Study 1 begins with preliminar
 y data collection, assessing the knowledge levels of medical students rega
 rding the link between lifestyle behaviors and health outcomes. Concurrent
 ly, we identify the perceived challenges hindering this demographic's adop
 tion of healthier lifestyle choices. Study 2 is dedicated to usability tes
 ting, incorporating invaluable user insights to refine the educational vid
 eo intervention. Finally, Study 3, a randomized controlled experiment, eva
 luates the effectiveness of our intervention in promoting informed whole-g
 rain dietary decisions.\nResults: Study 1 underscores a significant knowle
 dge gap concerning the relationship between lifestyle behaviors and health
  risks among medical students. Participants' perceived importance of healt
 h decisions does not align with current epidemiological evidence. Study 2 
 yields crucial user feedback, further enhancing the intervention's design.
  However, the results of Study 3 reveal that while the intervention succes
 sfully increases informed decision-making, it falls short of significantly
  improving whole-grain dietary choices.\nConclusion: Our research culminat
 es in the development of an intervention that prioritizes patient safety a
 nd equitable care by promoting informed dietary decision-making. This inte
 rvention meets the ethical imperative of informed decisions in healthcare.
  Additionally, our findings highlight the predictive capacity of novel kno
 wledge factors, offering valuable insights for future intervention develop
 ment and testing.\n\nTrack: Digital Health, Simulation and Education, Hosp
