Abstract: While there is a plethora of evidence-based literature available, there is a lack of dissemination amongst nurse anesthetists and other healthcare professionals. The purpose of this project was to determine the effectiveness of short educational videos posted to social media on nurse anesthetist engagement and its impact on patient outcomes. To assess their engagement in literature, pre-and post-intervention assessments were administered to nurse anesthetists. These assessments examined the frequency of nurse anesthetist engagement with evidence-based practice and the effect of engagement with the literature on patient outcomes. Findings from this project revealed statistically significant increases in provider engagement with evidence-based literature, along with an increase in the modification of their practice to meet evidence-based practice standards. Improved patient outcomes were observed after implementation of evidence-based practice interventions presented in the posted videos. Further research with a larger sample size is needed to fully understand the effects of short videos as an educational resource.
