Summary

This study will compare opioid consumption in patients undergoing outpatient surgical fixation of distal radius fractures with and without standardized preoperative education at Grady Memorial Hospital.

Conditions

  • Distal Radius Fracture

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Standardized Preoperative Education

The standardized preoperative education includes a brief video, an interactive quiz, and a written handout. The video will provide information on the proper use and common side effects of opioid pain medications, the expected effects of a peripheral nerve block, and the concept of multimodal postoperative pain management with non-opioid medications and non-pharmaceutical pain management strategies. The interactive quiz will reinforce the critical components of the video in a question-and-answer format which requires active participation. The written handout will summarize the educational content in a form which can be easily referenced by patients at home.

BEHAVIORAL

Standard of care

Education per provider preference (no standardization, current standard of care)

BEHAVIORAL

Preoperative and postoperative questionnaires

Preoperative questionnaire: Demographic questions plus specific questions about chronic pain, prior opioid use, and mental health diagnoses Postoperative questionnaire: Questions about pain control after surgery, satisfaction with pain control, healthcare contact since surgery, opioid consumption since surgery, and satisfaction with education
