Multimedia as an information resource for cancer clients

By Adriana Crespo

Concerns about the quality of the information we pass on to our clients and how it is assimilated has led to the development of strategies that facilitate the transmission of messages, which raises the question: Can visual information in the media help nurses and be a strategy for guiding clients about the Totally Implanted Central Venous Catheter (CVC-TI) for clients undergoing chemotherapy? The development of an informative health media product requires responsibility and multi-professional action. This work emerged from the clients' main doubts and was carefully produced using all the research protocols not only to identify the need but also to produce the final product. The core of this multimedia consists of information and a visual support, the latter being what makes the message visible. The communication support is visual, made up of structure, shape, module, texture, color and movement, which are transcribed into encrypted messages. Non-verbal reading also plays a part in the material, as one of the mechanisms for producing meaning integrated with other domains of knowledge, acting on the individual's culture.
