X-Plain Cardiovascular Patient Education for Tablets
Research shows that patients don’t read handouts. During office visits, they forget or misunderstand 40-80% of what they hear. Anxiety about health concerns can make it hard for anyone to concentrate.
X-Plain Cardiovascular relies on simplified text, full narration, illustrations and animations to help your patients make sense of their diagnosis and treatment options. Interactive questions verify patient comprehension and prepare them for teach-back.
Our software runs on iPads or Android tablets, health websites and patient portals. Clients can use our Android tablet solution to demonstrate informed consent in the courtroom.

Why Do Patients Prefer X-Plain?
Nine out of ten patients surveyed said they wish all their healthcare providers offered X-Plain. Here’s why:
- Patients can see and hear the concepts explained through text, narration, illustrations and animations. Research shows this multiple-input approach improves the user's attention, comprehension and retention.
- Patients can control the pace of learning. Users with limited health literacy can learn at their own pace, while those with more background knowledge can turn off the narration and proceed quickly. The presentation automatically stops if the patient becomes distracted and doesn’t press continue.
- Patients often feel intimidated when engaging in teach-back with a healthcare provider. In an X-Plain program, patients who answer a question incorrectly can try again without embarrassment. When they answer questions correctly, their confidence grows. Patients who feel less anxiety can focus more easily during teach-back and are more likely to point out possible medical errors.
Why Do Healthcare Providers Prefer X-Plain?
X-Plain not only increases patient satisfaction, but it also reduces the burden on healthcare providers. We help our clients:
- Streamline teach-back by answering the most common questions that patients and their families ask.
- Support informed consent by documenting completion and comprehension of the programs. Our tutorials have been used in a court of law to help dismiss claims that the patient was not adequately informed.
- Engage a broader population by giving patients access to content in their native language – English, Spanish or Arabic.
- Achieve their goals by developing patient education content and solutions that meet each client’s needs.
