This randomized controlled trial evaluates the effectiveness of a robot-assisted digital education program for pregnant women diagnosed with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). The intervention aims to reduce anxiety, improve health literacy, and increase satisfaction and acceptance of digital health technologies. Participants are randomly assigned to either a robot-assisted education group or a conventional tablet-based video education group. Outcome measures include anxiety scores, health literacy scores, and educational satisfaction.
This study implemented a robot-assisted digital education method for teaching about gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) that was intended to reduce anxiety and encourage healthy behaviors among pregnant women. A randomized controlled trial was conducted to assess the effectiveness of the intervention, where 66 pregnant women from a single hospital were randomly assigned to either the experimental group (n = 32) or the control group (n = 34). The experimental group received health education about GDM using a robot, while the control group received the same health education through video presentations on a tablet. The results showed that the implemented robot-assisted digital education method not only reduced anxiety levels among pregnant women, but also influences their health education satisfaction, health literacy, and acceptance of technology. In the global information age, this study can serve as a reference for educators and researchers at medical institutions interested in tracking long-term health education through technological tools.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Robot-Assisted Education Group | Experimental | Participants in this group receive a 30-minute robot-assisted digital health education session about gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). The robot delivers content using animated videos, emotional facial expressions, gesture recognition, and interactive responses via touch and voice input. |
|
| Tablet-Based Education Group (Control) | Experimental | Participants in this group receive the same 30-minute health education content about GDM via a standard tablet. The video is identical to that in the experimental group but lacks interactive features such as gesture recognition or robot expressions. |
|
| Name | Type | Description | Arm Group Labels | Other Names |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Robot with interactive animations, gesture recognition, and touch/voice-based input | Device | A humanoid educational robot that provides GDM-related content using animated videos, emotional facial expressions, gesture movements, and voice/touch-based interaction. Designed to increase engagement, reduce anxiety, and improve health literacy among pregnant women. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Anxiety Level | Anxiety levels were assessed using a Likert-type scale ranging from 1 (no symptoms) to 5 (severe anxiety). | Immediately post-intervention |
| Health Literacy | Health literacy, which also used a Likert scale ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree) | Immediately post-intervention |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Health education Satisfaction | Health education satisfaction was using a Likert scale ranging from 1 (very satisfied) to 5 (very dissatisfied) | Immediately post-intervention |
| Technology Acceptance |
