Abstract

The purpose of this QI project is to evaluate the effects of a supplemental evidenced-based brochure compared to a standard brochure on knowledge gains in patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) surgery in a bariatric accredited surgical center of excellence (COE) in a Northeast Florida acute care medical facility. This QI project will assess data obtained from a non-educated group (group 1), about patient levels of understanding, and compare those to data obtained from an educated group (group 2).
