About this study

Official title: The Effect of Preoperative Education on Postoperative Opioid Consumption

The investigators will evaluate the effect of preoperative education on postoperative opioid.

Read the detailed description

The investigators propose a randomized trial to be performed at the Cleveland Clinic. Patients will be assigned to: 1) an educational video focused on postoperative analgesia modalities, opioids, and realistic pain expectations (analgesic education); or, 2) an educational video focused on other aspects of the perioperative experience.

Being tested
Video on analgesic education, Video on general perioperative education
Medical subject headings
Pain, Postoperative

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Video on analgesic educationOther

    A four minute video informing the patient about opioids.

  • Video on general perioperative educationOther

    A four minute video informing the patient about general perioperative process.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Opioid Consumption

    Opioid consumption (morphine milligrams equivalent) during the initial 72 hours after surgery.

    Measured: 72 hours after surgery

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Time-weighted Average Pain Scores

    Time-weighted average of pain scores obtained from electronic medical records. Pain scores were measured using the numeric rating scale ranging from 0-10, with 0 indicating the lowest pain (better) and 10 the highest pain (worse). Pain scores were recorded approximately every 15 minutes in the post-anesthesia care unit and then every 4 hours in the ward.

    Measured: 72 hours after surgery, or until discharge, whichever was earlier

  2. Satisfaction With Post Operative Pain Management

    Patient satisfaction measured using Likert scale 0-10 with 0 meaning not satisfied and 10 meaning completely satisfied.

    Measured: 3 days after surgery
