While conventional educational methods offer some benefit, interactive digital tools may yield deeper engagement and sustained behavioral change.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec id=\"sec002\">\n<jats:title>Objective<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>This study assesses and compares the impact of interactive and conventional video-based education, as well as usual care, on patient activation, treatment adherence, and inter-dialytic weight gain in individuals undergoing hemodialysis.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec id=\"sec003\">\n<jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>A three-arm, parallel-group, randomized clinical trial will be conducted in three academic hospitals in Tehran, Iran. A sample of patients will be enrolled and distributed into one of three categories: (1) interactive video education, (2) conventional video education, or (3) typical nurse-led education. The 13-item Patient Activation Measure will be used to measure the primary outcome of patient activation. Secondary outcomes will encompass treatment adherence, as measured by the End Stage Renal Disease Adherence Questionnaire, and inter-dialytic weight gain. Evaluations will occur at baseline, immediately post-intervention, and at 1- and 3-month follow-up intervals. Data will be analyzed using intention-to-treat principles with mixed-effects modeling.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec id=\"sec004\">\n<jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>This trial is among the first to rigorously compare interactive and conventional video education in a dialysis population. Findings may inform scalable, cost-effective strategies for improving self-management and adherence in patients with end-stage renal disease.
