Official title
A Randomized Controlled Trial of the Consent Process for Patients Undergoing Trans-obturator Tape Slings.
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this study is to determine if addition of a handout to the standard consent process for the trans-obturator tape (TOT) mid-urethral sling procedure will improve patients' understanding, recall and satisfaction with their procedure. The information provided in the handout will include the procedure details, the accompanying risks and benefits, as well as the expectations and alternatives to the TOT procedure. The aim of the investigators is to improve and standardize the current process for surgical consent for patients undergoing a mid-urethral sling procedure, specifically the TOT. The investigators hypothesize that addition of a handout will improve patient's preoperative comprehension by an absolute value of 10% compared to the standard consent process. The investigators further hypothesize that the handout will improve patient satisfaction and recall of the surgical procedure details post operatively.
