This study seeks to determine if watching a preoperative educational video influences opioid consumption and proper disposal following elective hand surgery.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study seeks to determine if watching a preoperative educational video influences opioid consumption and proper disposal following elective hand surgery. Patients undergoing elective hand surgery are randomized to either watch a preoperative educational video or not. Patients are asked to record their pain medication usage postoperatively, as well as their daily pain levels and satisfaction with their pain control after surgery.
