Videos could depict the progression of their condition and the impact of adequate medication and lifestyle changes. Such a storytelling tool could assist in the patients’ treatment adherence and improve their health literacy. Furthermore, patients and their physicians could generate videos to devise the appropriate treatment journey that fits the patients’ individual schedules.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>For example, a new video could be created to instruct a patient on how to properly perform exercises recommended by a physiotherapist or how to use a personal health sensor at home.&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2.
