Brief Summary:
In clinical practice, patients scheduled for biopsy often suffer substantial stress before, during or after the procedure. In particular, most patients feel uncomfortable both with the procedure itself and with the idea of the results of the biopsy.
Providing adequate information is crucial, though there is no agreement as to which is the best way to present such information. Although verbal information provided by the professional is the most common scenario, the use of written information in the form of explanatory leaflets, as well as audio recordings or videos, has also been proposed The present study was carried out at the Dental School of Universidad de San Carlos (Guatemala) to evaluate the hypothesis that an audiovisual intervention providing information on oral biopsy is able to reduce patient anxiety and stress.
Detailed Description:
A prospective, randomized clinical trial was carried out involving. A total of 120 patients were therefore finally randomized, following the Consort Statement guidelines, with the definition of two groups: a control group (n = 60) that received standard verbal information, and an experimental group (n = 60) that received information in the form of a video
