Summary
This is an interventional trial to introduce two short animated videos into preoperative counseling/consent and to compare patient comprehension and satisfaction with a multimedia approach compared to standard of care currently. The investigators anticipate that patients will retain more information about their surgery and peri-operative care and will be more satisfied with a multimedia approach.
Detailed description
The investigators plan a pilot study where patients will be randomized to receiving standard consent and teaching prior to their planned surgery for endometrial cancer or standard consent and multimedia video aid with targeted teaching. This video will be an adjunct to the standard consent process and supplement the pre and post-operative teaching that is currently not formalized. The primary outcome is patient satisfaction. The secondary outcomes include patient understanding and physician satisfaction. The investigators hypothesize that patients will be more satisfied when their consent for surgery is done in conjunction with this multimedia aid.
