10 Reasons why you need Medical Animation – Part 1

10 Reasons Why You Need Medical Animation

Many businesses today know that videos and animation are an important part of marketing, as well as a great way to give information to consumers and clients. The medical industry is no different, having utilized diagrams, drawings and illustrations, photos and videos to foster better learning and enhanced communication. Medical animation is also a useful tool for clarifying many important, often difficult-to-understand subjects, procedures and techniques, and is likewise a cost-effective option.

Because animation an help improve memory retention significantly more than just a verbal or written explanation, it can benefit many medical professionals, facilities, pharmaceutical companies and other healthcare organizations. The following are 10 reasons why you need medical animation.

1. Pictures Will Always Beat Text for Retention

Think back to when you were first learning words like “apple” and “dog.” There were always pictures of the named objects to go along with those words, and for a very good reason. The human brain is very good at remembering pictures, illustrations and animations that are used as a visual aid. In fact, video or animation improves retention by over 50 percent. This is an especially important consideration in the medical field, where medical animation can be used to aid in several areas of training and disciplines.

2. Viewers Can Understand Animation Very Easily

Just as medical animation can aid in retention, so too can it help viewers to better understand a process, a procedure or any other area detailed in the animation, such as how blood cells travel through veins, or how the eyeball perceives its surroundings.

3. Animation Makes a Bigger Impact

Telling someone they have high cholesterol or showing them a picture of a clogged artery can be jarring enough, but show a medical animation of a clogged artery, and you’ve got a teaching tool with impact. It might be just the thing to make a patient truly understand the seriousness of various medical conditions.

4. 3D Medical Animation Can Be Used to Explain Surgical Procedures

A 3D medical animation can clearly describe how various surgical procedures are performed, such as a hip replacement. Having a better idea of how a surgery is performed can make it less worrisome for the patient.

5. Animation Can Be Used to Show How to Properly Use a Drug

The instructions on medication vials can sometimes be confusing and hard to read, and patients might not always remember each detail when told verbally. But a medical animation can help them better understand how to use the drug properly and aid in their retention of the instructions.

In conclusion, medical animation has come a long way, and now plays an important role in training, providing patient information, product marketing and more.

Lights, Camera, Engagement – How Online Video is Changing Healthcare

Action, action! Read all about it! 2017 is the year of video marketing and the year has kicked off in full force. With more than 60% of marketers and small business owners increasing investment in video marketing this year, video is proving itself as the essential instrument for influence in 2017. One of the industries being affected by the increase in video marketing is the health industry.

Healthcare in Video

While many relied on articles for promoting information in the last few decades, video has now taken over as the key correspondent of information. Healthcare can be a dry and difficult industry to understand for laymen. AJ Agrawal, contributor to Forbes says, “the reason people are drawn to videos is the ability to visually understand specific topics. This clearly works well for health industry startups where everything from various wellness and medical conditions can be explained in an easier to digest way illustrating how a new product or service can work for a health-related problem.” Concepts Video has created dozens of how-to medical videos, clearly demonstrating how a product works in an entertaining and informative fashion.

Why Video?

Agrawal says, “besides using new formats and types of video production you’re your health industry startup, your video marketing campaign has to focus on the same things your other content marketing tactics have done if they are to resonate with your audience, build trust, inspire them to share it, and have them return again and again to you as their expert.” Concepts Video has relied on a winning formula for TV commercials for years so it’s no wonder that we have adapted our engaging prescription for online video.

What Types of Video Should We Use?

With an ever-changing environment of platforms, it can be confusing as to what types of videos companies should be producing. Agrawal advises, “whether it is live streaming, an ephemeral video, or an animated video, your video content must show that you understand and have identified your audience’s health-related problem and pain points. Then it must educate them and provide an effective solution. Finally, include a call-to-action that incites urgency and pushes them to act on what they see in the video.”

Concepts Video is a leading expert is creating influential videos for the healthcare industry that drive sales with a compelling call-to-action.
