No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Approximately 4,000 procedures with hysterectomy for benign indication are performed annually in Sweden. There are large differences in preoperative information, planning of surgery and surgical technique. A structured approach including the use of mobile phone technology can possibly improve patient information and patient involvement. Our purpose is to to evaluate whether systematic preoperative preparation improves the outcome of elective hysterectomy on benign indication.

Conditions

  • Benign Hysterectomy
  • Postoperative Recovery
  • Preoperative Planning

Interventions

OTHER

Intiensified structured perioperative information

The doctor takes a medical history and examines the patient according to regular routines, but uses the algorithm as support in deciding on the surgical method. After the doctor's visit, the patient must see a research nurse to receive the intensified preoperative information about hysterectomy. This information is designed according to a checklist. The patient can also download a mobile application. The study-specific mobile application (app) contains information about hysterectomy. The information is structured in three parts - Before the Operation, At the Hospital and After the Operation. A timeline describes the activities and events that occur before, around and after the operation. Within each section there are several information links, with eg checklists.
