Brief Summary: Addressing brain health and cognitive impairment CI in the aging population is important especially in those undergoing surgery While certain adverse outcomes are beyond control due to various factors some may be preventable such as delirium It is crucial for patients and their families to be fully aware of the heightened risks associated with CI By discussing the implications for individuals and their families patients can make informed decisions about their health Additionally patients can be better prepared for their post-operative care and informed about post-operative complications Education is a practical and viable solution to promote awareness and empower individuals to manage their cognitive health especially in the context of surgery Also it can act as an early intervention Thus there is a need to proactively educate older adults about brain health

The objective of the Web-Based Brain Health Education Study is to determine the impact of preoperative education on the knowledge of cognitive health of older surgical patients Specifically our study will examine the changes in knowledge scores after patients participate in a web-based education program on promoting brain health during their surgical journey We hypothesize that a web-based education program will increase patient knowledge and empower them proactively about their brain health during the surgical journey
Detailed Description: The primary objective of this study is to determine the impact of a web-based educational program in promoting brain health in older surgical patients by changes in their knowledge score after education For the secondary objectives we aim to 1 determine participant satisfaction with the educational program and 2 gain insights regarding perceived benefits and drawbacks of the brain health program

This multicenter study will target older patients from pre-admission clinics at Toronto Western TWH and Mount Sinai Hospitals MSH Written informed consent to participate in the study will be obtained from all patients in person during the visit

In a pre-operative assessment 1-30 days prior to their scheduled surgery patients will be asked to participate in our web-based educational program The program will be delivered on a research laptopiPad at the clinic The entire program including pre- and post-education questionnaires and satisfaction survey should take about 20 minutes to complete
