dc.description.abstractTransition from pediatric to adult care is challenging for patients with complex, chronic illnesses such as type 1 diabetes mellitus. To optimize successful transition of care, providers put great efforts into preparing patients for the change. This thesis evaluated the use of videos for patient decision-making in general and one video in particular that was designed to facilitate transition of care. The scoping review demonstrated that there is a vast amount of published data, which show that videos are effective in helping patients make decisions. The focus group study affirmed that patients appreciate the incorporation of a video in their transition preparation. These participants also noted that the process of transition required then to deal with complex emotional ambiguity as well as navigate logistic challenges. Video resources, which may be particularly useful to prepare in youth and young adults for important junctions in care, are valuable tools that should continue to be developed and refined.en_US
