Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of this clinical trial is to validate patient-oriented edits to a guided video on self-performed hand examination in participants with no prior hand diagnoses or medical background. The study aims to:

* examine the effect of adding interactive components to an existing orthopedic provider video
* determine if these changes enhance patients' understanding of hand and wrist anatomy as well as carpal tunnel syndrome
* determine if patients are able to use this video to perform an effective physical exam Participants will watch an original physician-oriented training video and a second version (patient-oriented video), which was edited with the input of a patient advisory committee to include interactive elements and a slower speed. The order in which the participants will watch the video will be randomized.

If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare knowledge scores and general patient preference between the two videos being examined.

patient-oriented video

A patient-oriented video with the goal of instructing patients about the maneuvers needed to make specific diagnoses of the hand and wrist. Wording was changed so that it was more patient friendly and text was added to the screen.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Patient-oriented video

Intervention Type OTHER

The previously validated Hand and Wrist Examination Video by NEJM was modified via the "TogoTiki" application and approved by a patient advisory council.

physician-oriented training video

A physician-oriented video with the goal of instructing physicians on the maneuvers needed to make specific diagnoses of the hand and wrist.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Physician-oriented Video

Intervention Type OTHER

previously validated Hand and Wrist Examination Video by NEJM designed for usage by a physician in diagnosing common hand and wrist diagnoses
