- Description
Pre- and post-assessments demonstrate the impact of educational intervention to modify perceptions of opioid needs at the bedside of trauma inpatients in post-surgery pain management. Twenty- eight inpatients (20 women and 8 men), aged 18-65 years, admitted to the R Adams Cowley Shock Treatment Center at the University of Maryland Medical Center volunteered to participate in the proof-of-concept study to evaluate the impact of educational intervention. During the pre-assessment, inpatients rated their levels of agreement to eight statements by marking along a 10 cm horizontal scale. During the post-assessment, after intervention, the same survey was given again, with an additional two questions regarding their perceived utility of the educational intervention and how easy it was to understand the educational materials. Sociodemographic and clinical characteristics, including age, sex, race, educational status, and marital status, were collected at the baseline before the educational intervention. Data was collected from April 2019 to February 2020.
