“…Our findings suggest that consenting a patient using a detailed written tool did not overwhelm them or prompt anxiety. These findings were in line with those reported by Fraval et al, 6 who found that exposing patients to written information regarding a procedure did not increase anxiety or apprehension for adult patients undergoing orthopaedic surgery. However, it is important to acknowledge that this study was underpowered to detect a change in anxiety across time due to the small number of participants in the trial.…”

“…PtDAs such as leaflets, web-based information, and booklets have improved retention of important surgical information in the elective orthopaedic surgery setting. [5][6][7] However, little is known about the effectiveness of these communication methods in the emergency and trauma setting. The primary aim of this study is to assess the effectiveness of a procedurespecific detailed written tool in improving postoperative recall of information in adult orthopaedic trauma patients.…”

AimsPatient decision aids have previously demonstrated an improvement in the quality of the informed consent process. This study assessed the effectiveness of detailed written patient information, compared to standard verbal consent, in improving postoperative recall in adult orthopaedic trauma patients.MethodsThis randomized controlled feasibility trial was conducted at two teaching hospitals within the South Eastern Sydney Local Health District. Adult patients (age ≥ 18 years) pending orthopaedic trauma surgery between March 2021 and September 2021 were recruited and randomized to detailed or standard methods of informed consent using a random sequence concealed in sealed, opaque envelopes. The detailed group received procedure-specific written information in addition to the standard verbal consent. The primary outcome was total recall, using a seven-point interview-administered recall questionnaire at 72 hours postoperatively. Points were awarded if the participant correctly recalled details of potential complications (maximum three points), implants used (maximum three points), and postoperative instructions (maximum one point). Secondary outcomes included the anxiety subscale of the Hospital and Anxiety Depression Scale (HADS-A) and visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain collected at 24 hours preoperatively and 72 hours postoperatively. Additionally, the Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire Short Form (PSQ-18) measured satisfaction at 72 hours postoperatively.ResultsA total of 60 patients were randomized, 32 to the standard group and 28 to the detailed group. Patients in the detailed group had significantly higher total recall score compared to the standard group (mean difference 1.29 points (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.51 to 2.08); p = 0.002). There were no differences in HADS-A (mean difference 0.39 (95% CI -2.11 to 2.88); p = 0.757), VAS pain (mean difference 5.71 (95% CI -22.25 to 11.11); p = 0.499), or PSQ-18 (mean difference 0.499; 95% CI -1.6 to 3.42; p = 0.392).ConclusionDetailed written tools are useful in improving postoperative recall in adult orthopaedic trauma patients.Cite this article: Bone Jt Open 2023;4(2):104–109.
