Study Summary
The investigators want to determine if delivering formal preoperative education to patients helps the patients with post operative pain, function and overall satisfaction. Education would cover surgery, post operative activities of daily living, pain and edema management, duration of recovery and any expected therapy they might need. All participants will receive a pre and post operative questionnaire to determine level of understanding of anticipated needs and barriers due to surgery. Group one will receive formal education from an occupational therapist or physical therapist while Group two will receive only standard education in the MD clinic.
Primary Outcome
Bell curve scale for scoring: A score of 50 is the average amount of physical function and/or upper extremity function in the general population. A score below 40 would be poorer function, whereas, a score above 60 would be better function than the general population.
