Study Summary

The informed consent process is an important part of any surgical and anesthetic intervention. It is also perhaps the most intellectually demanding portion of interacting with the healthcare system for patients. Competent patients have full autonomy over which treatments they receive, and making an informed choice about the decision to undergo a treatment requires at minimum a discussion of the proposed intervention, its risks and benefits, and alternatives to the proposed intervention. The objective is to improve the anesthesia informed consent process for patients undergoing elective Caesarean delivery through the use of a pre-recorded audiovisual presentation that discusses the logistical aspects of perioperative care and the risks and benefits of anesthesia which is provided to patients prior to meeting their anesthesiologist. The hypothesis is that the use of an audiovisual presentation which explains the purpose and nature of anesthesia for Caesarean delivery provided to the patient at least 24 hours prior to their procedure will result in a 10% increase in the effectiveness of risk communication and treatment decision making as measured by the Combined Outcome Measure for Risk Communication and Treatment Decision Making Effectiveness (COMRADE) tool.
