The objective was to determine if hand-written rehearsal of core and custom consent items would increase short-term recall and comprehension. Methods: Ninety patient-parent pairs were randomly assigned to two groups. After case presentation, each subject was provided 10 minutes to read a modified informed consent document. Group A received visual printouts containing the four core elements (root resorption, decalcification, pain, and relapse/retention) likely to be encountered by all patients and up to four custom elements (e.g. impacted teeth, orthognathic surgery or other case specific treatment issues). Subjects identified and wrote what the image depicted and how it could affect treatment. Group B viewed a slideshow presentation on all 18 consent elements arranged from general to specific. All participants were interviewed, and each provided their socio-demographic data, as well as completed literacy, health literacy, and state anxiety questionnaires. The groups were compared for recall and comprehension through an ANCOVA. Results: The rehearsal intervention significantly improved recall and comprehension of the core elements (p=0.001). Rehearsal also improved custom recall and comprehension, but not significantly. Group B performed significantly better on treatment questions (p=0.001). Overall, as anxiety increased, correct responses decreased. Conclusions: The rehearsal group improved recall and comprehension of the core and custom elements of informed consent and proved a more efficient method than an audiovisual presentation to provide informed consent. 2019-08-29 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1553690512382297 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1553690512382297 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
