Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) Pilot Study Evaluating the Utility of an Educational Video
Completed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Actinic Keratoses
In brief
The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of prospective patient education on patient satisfaction with administration of topical 5% 5-fluorouracil cream for the treatment of actinic keratosis involving the face, scalp, upper chest, dorsal hands and forearms. Specifically, this study aims to determine if prospective patient viewing of an educational video delineating treatment effects and expectations improves patient satisfaction and treatment completion rates.
