Background
Chronic constipation, particularly in patients with associated comorbidities, remains a commonly encountered yet under-addressed condition in clinical practice. Physicians often seek concise, evidence-based educational resources that can be accessed conveniently alongside busy schedules. To bridge this gap, a digital medical education campaign was conceptualized to deliver structured, clinically relevant content to physicians through a trusted professional learning platform. The initiative aimed to combine educational value with sustained digital engagement.
Objective
The key objectives of the campaign were:
- To increase awareness and clinical understanding of treatment approaches for chronic constipation
- To deliver scientifically accurate, easy-to-consume educational content to physicians
- To drive consistent engagement through a structured weekly content rollout
- To achieve measurable reach and interaction across multiple digital touchpoints
Target Audience
- Consulting Physicians
- Surgeons
These specialties were selected due to their direct involvement in diagnosing and managing patients with chronic constipation and related conditions.
Campaign Duration
8 weeks (June 2025 – August 2025)
Strategy
An omnichannel digital education strategy was adopted to maximize visibility and engagement. The approach focused on delivering educational content at regular intervals and reinforcing learning through repeated exposure across multiple channels. Emphasis was placed on relevance, clinical applicability, and ease of access to ensure sustained physician interest throughout the campaign.
Content Development
- A total of eight educational assets were created:
- Four infographics highlighting key clinical insights
- Four case studies presenting real-world patient scenarios and management approaches
- All content was developed by a dedicated medical content team following standard editorial and compliance guidelines
- A dedicated microsite was created to host all campaign content, allowing physicians to access resources in one centralized location
Weekly Release Format
- The campaign followed a weekly content release schedule over eight weeks
- One new asset (infographic or case study) was published each week
- This staggered approach ensured continuous engagement and improved content recall among physicians
Omnichannel Distribution
The campaign leveraged a comprehensive omnichannel mix to reach physicians across preferred digital platforms:
- Mobile application
- Website
- Email communication
- SMS alerts
- WhatsApp messaging
- Roadblock and display advertisements
This multi-touchpoint strategy ensured consistent exposure and reinforced educational messaging.
