NCT ID: NCT05641077

Last Updated: 2024-09-26

Results Overview

Patient satisfaction will be measured by the Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire-18 (PSQ-18) at the 6-week postoperative visit. The PSQ-18 is a validated 18-item questionnaire. Responses to each question are scored on a five-point Likert scale, ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). The total score for the questionnaire ranges from 18 (dissatisfaction with medical care) to 90 (highest satisfaction with medical care).

Virtual Visit
Patients randomized to the experimental arm will be scheduled for and follow up with the surgeon or an advanced practice provider via a virtual visit using videoconference technology at 6 weeks after the anticipated date of surgery. If the surgery were to be rescheduled to a future date, the postoperative visit will be moved accordingly to ensure follow-up occurs at the 6-week postoperative period.

Office Visit
Patients randomized to the active comparator arm will be scheduled for and follow up with the surgeon or an advanced practice provider via an in-office visit at 6 weeks after the planned date of surgery. If the surgery were to be rescheduled to a future date, the postoperative visit will be moved accordingly to ensure follow-up occurs at the 6-week postoperative period. Office Visit: Patients randomized to this arm will be scheduled for and follow up with the surgeon or an advanced practice provider via an in-office visit at 6 weeks after the planned date of surgery.
