Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The investigators long-term goal is to improve patient-centered preparedness and satisfaction when considering surgery. Previous studies by the Preliminary Study of Peer Support Groups and Pelvic Floor Disorders have demonstrated trends in improvement for preparedness and decision conflict with the use of peer focus groups. However, peer support groups are a costly process and there may be many barriers to participation.
A key gap in the literature is how to improve patient preparedness for surgery and improve satisfaction through the use of peer counseling in a manner that is convenient for patients, reproducible and low cost. Technological advances with multimedia may assist in bridging this gap. With ease-of-access to mobile electronic devices, videos are effective tools to prepare patients for surgery. The purpose of this randomized controlled clinical trial is to determine if a patient-centered video improves satisfaction and preparedness compared to a physician-centered video.
The first objective of this research is to develop two videos to counsel patients who have elected to undergo a MUS procedure. One video will be created from a physician-centered approach. The second video will be a patient-centered perspective. The second objective of this research is to compare the impact of video counseling between women randomized to a physician-centered versus a patient-centered video. The central hypothesis is that women randomized to a patient-centered video will report higher scores of satisfaction and preparedness than women randomized to the physician-centered video.
Specifically, our aims for this study are:
1. To create two videos to be used to counsel patients who have elected to undergo a MUS procedure. One video will present the risks, benefits and alternatives to MUS surgery by a physician, mimicking traditional counseling prior to surgery. The second video will explain the risks, benefits and alternatives to the MUS surgery utilizing a patient mentor who has undergone the MUS procedure and will describe the patients' perception of the information. The patient-centered video will also include topics that have previously been identified by focus groups as important patient-centered aspects of pre-surgical counseling.
2. To compare the impact of video counseling between women randomized to a physician-centered video and a patient-centered video. Hypothesis: Women randomized to a patient centered-video will report higher satisfaction and preparedness as measured by validated scales. They will have higher scores on the Post-operative preparedness questionnaire (PPQ), Preparedness Scale and the Surgical Decision Satisfaction (SDS-PFD) questionnaire; and lower scores on the Decision Regret Scale (DRS-PFD) questionnaire than women randomized to view the physician-centered video prior to undergoing mid-urethral sling surgery.
3. To compare a women's decisional conflict post-operatively in women randomized to the physician-centered video and the patient-centered video. Hypothesis: There is a reduction of decisional conflict in women randomized to the patient-centered video.
4. To determine if there are differences in anxiety scores in women who watch the patient-centered video versus the physician centered video. Hypothesis: Anxiety scores measured by the State Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI: Y-6 Item) questionnaire are decreased by a pre-operative patient-centered counseling video.
