Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Group B: MicrovideoExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Group B (n=30) will receive an asynchronous 10-minute micro-video on the topic for which no face-to-face interaction with faculty will be conducted. The micro-video will be provided on a 12.9-inch iPad pro for each participant to view individually. The micro-video group will also have the opportunity to practice pump refilling before the post-evaluation. Participants in Group B will have the micro-video instruction available while practicing hands-on baclofen pump refilling and programming. The maximum time allowed to view the micro-video and practice hands-on baclofen pump refilling and programming will be 30-minutes. The time that each participant in group B spends reviewing the micro-video and practicing hands-on pump refilling and programming will be recorded. The participant may view and rewind the video as many times as needed in the 30-minute period. The live demonstration and the procedural video describe identical steps involved in refilling and programming the baclofen pump.
Group II: Group A: Traditonal LectureActive Control1 Intervention
Group A (n=30) will receive a baclofen pump refill and programming instruction via the traditional lecture method performed by a single faculty member. The traditional lecture will consist of a PowerPoint lecture for 30 minutes, a demonstration of the refilling and programming technique for 10 minutes, and participant hands-on practice refilling and programming a baclofen pump for 20 minutes. Group A will have time to practice refilling and programming baclofen pumps with the guidance of a single faculty member during the traditional 60-minute lecture.
