Official title
Assessing Preoperative Falls as a Predictor for Postoperative Surgical Outcomes
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This study will compare two commonly-used methods for assessing patient-reported quality of life. The first is to assess quality of life before surgery and again after surgery using the same validated scale (ie Veterans Rand 12). The second is simply to ask patients whether or not they think their post-operative quality of life is better, worse, or the same. The investigators hypothesize that the second method may be inaccurate due to cognitive bias.
