Multimedia Aid Gynecologic Counseling and Consent

Patient satisfaction with the clinic visit (either new patient visit where they are consented for surgery or a pre-operative visit). Patient satisfaction will be measured using two survey tools: a single question to assess global satisfaction with the clinic visit (on a scale from 1-10) and an 8 question validated satisfaction survey (Client Satisfaction Questionnaire-8 or CSQ-8). Patient satisfaction will be compared between the control and intervention groups. For the single question satisfaction question, answers are on a scale from 1-10, the higher numbers indicating higher satisfaction. The CSQ8 survey contains 8 questions that all have answers ranging from 1 to 4, with higher numbers indicating higher satisfaction.

Patient comprehension (of the surgery, its complication, and peri-operative instructions) will be measured using a 9 question survey developed by the study investigators. This survey was developed to assess patient understanding on key information reviewed either in the study videos or by physicians during pre-operative counseling. Patient comprehension will be assessed at three different time points (using the same survey) to compare comprehension immediately after watching the video or undergoing standard physician counseling and again during the patient's hospital stay and at the follow-up visit. Comprehension scores will be compared between the control and intervention groups. The comprehension surveys questions will all be awarded points for correct answers, with higher answers indicating more comprehension of topics relating to the surgery.

Physician satisfaction with new patient or pre-operative visit. Physician satisfaction will be measured using a single question to assess global satisfaction with the clinic visit (on a scale from 1-10, with higher numbers indicating higher satisfaction).

Time of new patient or pre-operative visit. The length of visits will be recorded (from the time the physician first enters the patient room until the visit is complete and the patient is leaving the clinic room). Appointment times will be compared between the control and intervention group, for pre-operative visits and new patient visits.
