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.
I. To determine the effect of 14 days of preoperative guided visualization meditation on patients' anxiety undergoing major urologic-oncology surgery.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the effect of preoperative guided visualization meditation on patients' depression, stress, and quality of life.
II. To examine the difference in Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) Survey question scores between the two study groups.
III. To determine the ability of patient to perform a daily 23 minute meditation.
IV. To examine the correlation between depression and emergency department (ED) visits and readmissions post-operations.
OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.
ARM 1: Patients listen to guided meditation over 23 minutes daily for two weeks before their standard of care surgery. Patients also complete surveys over 10-15 minutes at baseline, after 10 days, 1 day before standard of care surgery, the day after discharge, and then 4 weeks after surgery.
ARM 2: Patients complete surveys over 10-15 minutes at baseline, after 10 days, 1 day before standard of care surgery, the day after discharge, and then 4 weeks after surgery.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Meditation
Participants randomized to the meditation arm will receive an mp3 audio recording of the visual guided meditation will be sent an additional mp3 file specifically for the recovery phase of surgery. Participants will be asked to complete a series of pre-study questionnaires to determine their baseline anxiety, depression, stress, and quality of life scores. Subjects will then complete the same questionnaires at four additional time points: after 10 days of daily meditations, 1 day before their surgery, and day after discharge, and 4 weeks post-operation.

23 minute audio recording
Control group
Participants received standard of care, including the option to attend a free "Prepare for Surgery workshop". Participants will be asked to complete a series of pre-study questionnaires to determine their baseline anxiety, depression, stress, and quality of life scores. Subjects will then complete the same questionnaires at four additional time points: after 10 days of daily meditations, 1 day before their surgery, and day after discharge, and 4 weeks post-operation.
