Study Summary

Surgical preparedness improves patient satisfaction and perioperative outcomes. In urogynecology, interventions to increase preoperative patient preparedness have not been adequately studied. Our objective is to evaluate the ability of preoperative provider-initiated telephone calls to increase patient preparedness for surgery. The investigators will conduct a randomized control trial comparing surgical preparedness between provider-initiated telephone call three days before surgery plus usual preoperative counseling versus usual preoperative counseling alone among women planning to undergo pelvic reconstructive surgery as measured by the Preoperative Patient Questionnaire (PPQ) and the Modified Preparedness for Colorectal Cancer Surgery Questionnaire (Modified PCSQ). Surgical satisfaction, perioperative outcomes, and medical costs will be also be compared between the two groups. Our hypothesis is that preoperative telephone calls will result in improved surgical preparedness. This novel approach in preoperative counseling has the potential to positively impact perioperative patient care. The investigators will also conduct an ancillary qualitative study of sexually active women undergoing pelvic reconstructive surgery who are enrolled in the randomized control trial. This work will aim to describe the patient experience, concerns, and the quality of the first sexual encounter following surgery. This ancillary study will lay the foundation for future investigations into how to better counsel patients and discuss sexual activity after surgical repair.
