About this study

The Learning from Online Video Education (LOVE) study seeks to determine if online instructional videos on how to administer medication needed for in vitro fertilization (IVF) help improve the quality of life and reduce stress during the IVF process.

Read the detailed description

The Learning from Online Video Education (LOVE) is a randomized controlled trial that seeks to determine the effect of instructional online videos on medication administration on psychological well being during controlled ovarian stimulation.

The investigators hypothesize that usage of online instructional videos by women undergoing their first cycle of controlled ovarian stimulation for in vitro fertilization or oocyte cryopreservation improves measures of psychological well-being (Infertility Self Efficacy Scale, FertiQoL-T and Perceived stress scores) when compared to subjects that do not have access to this educational resource.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Instructional VideoOther

    The experimental group will be asked to view a set of videos that demonstrate proper usage of controlled ovarian stimulation medication. They will have the opportunity to review instructional videos as needed throughout the ovarian stimulation process.

  • Control VideoOther

    The control group will have access to a video about the IVF process

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Infertility Self Efficacy Scale

    Short questionnaire to determine a subjects self efficacy related to fertility treatment

    Measured: The infertility self efficacy scale score will be collected up to two weeks after egg retrieval

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. FertiQoL-T score

    The FertiQoL-T questionnaire is a previously validated instrument to assess ones quality of life as it relates to the administration of fertility medication administration.

    Measured: The Ferti-QoL-T score will be collected up to two weeks after egg retrieval

  2. Perceived stress score

    This is a well validated psychological instrument used to measure one's perception of stress

    Measured: The perceived stress score will be collected up to two weeks after egg retrieval
