An interventional study of Educational Video in Pain, Postoperative, sponsored by Benaroya Research Institute. Completed at 1 site in United States. Open to female participants aged 18 Years and older, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2024-08-23.

The use of multi-model patient education has been used in a variety of medical specialties to educate patients on expectations for various medical procedures and improve patients' understanding of their own health care. However, it is unknown what type of audio and/or visual materials work best in a given clinical setting. By surveying overall pain/post-operative recovery satisfaction we can measure how well our video intervention educates and reinforces post-operative management at home when compared to the current method of education that patients receive at the pre-operative visit prior to laparoscopic hysterectomy at this institution.
5,089 studies on the registry are indexed under Pain, Postoperative; 1,137 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 94 is above the median of 75 across 4,341 interventional studies indexed under Pain, Postoperative.
