Summary

Patients undergoing Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) frequently experience anxiety. It has been suggested that enhanced patient education prior to the procedure may decrease patient anxiety. The purpose of the study is to investigate if optimized participant education enhances participant understanding, decreases participant anxiety and increases participant satisfaction.

Detailed description

1. To investigate if participant education with a 3 dimensional printed (3DP) MMS model and standardized script protocol increases participant understanding of MMS more than current standard of care (control group) at the University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center MMS Clinics. 2. To investigate if participant education with a 3DP MMS model and standardized script protocol decreases perioperative participant anxiety during MMS more than current standard of care (control group) at the University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center MMS Clinics. 3. To evaluate if participant satisfaction with a 3DP MMS model and standardized script protocol increases participant satisfaction during MMS more than current standard of care (control group) at the University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center MMS Clinics.
