Non-critical Emergency Room Patients Receiving Lortab Medication or Prescription During Their Emergency Room Visit Clinical Trial
Official title:
Video Assisted Informed Consent for Lortab to Improve Patient Satisfaction and Knowledge: A Randomized Control Study
In order to compare two different forms of patient education; patients who receive Lortab medication or prescription during their ED visit are randomized to receive either standard patient education (from healthcare provider) or video assisted education. After education, patient completes a survey, estimated to take 5 minutes to complete.
The purpose of this study is to compare different methods of teaching patients about their
prescription medicines. It is possible that certain teaching methods are better than others
at educating patients.
Patients who receive Lortab medication or prescription during their ED visit and agree to
the study are randomized to receive either standard patient education (from healthcare
provider) or watch a 3 minute video. After the medication teaching has been provided the
patient is given the medicine and a asked to complete a ten-question survey. This takes
approximately five minutes and asks the patient to rate the quality of the information
received.
