Video-Based AI-Generated Peri-operative Instructions for Mitral Valve Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Trial on Health Outcomes and Patient Experience

  1. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of a novel, AI-generated, interactive peri-operative video education program on total unplanned healthcare utilization
  2. The main procedures are questionnaires and watching a video.
  3. The subject population includes patients who are scheduled for isolated mitral valve repair surgery.
  4. All study procedures will occur here at Cedars Sinai.

Detailed Description

This study is a prospective, single center, randomized trial comparing an AI-generated peri-operative video education program to standard of care education (1:1 ratio) in patients undergoing MV repair. The trial will be conducted in Southern California. The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of a novel, AI-generated, interactive peri-operative video education program on total unplanned healthcare utilization, defined as a composite of hospital readmissions, ED visits, and unplanned outpatient visits, among patients undergoing mitral valve (MV) repair compared with standard of care education. The secondary aim is to analyze the association between utilization of this educational program with hospital length of stay (LOS) and patient cardiovascular medication compliance compared to standard of care education. The tertiary aim of this trial is to evaluate a range of patient-centered outcomes (levels of anxiety, satisfaction, and discharge location) following receipt of this educational program compared with standard of care.

  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Adult patients ≥ 18 years planned for elective, isolated MV repair.
  2. Provide Informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Insufficient computer/smart device knowledge. Children or caregivers can assist, but patients should be able to access their own email or text messages and navigate to the internet to use the provided AI generated educational intervention.
  2. Inconsistent access to a smart device with internet connection throughout the study period.
  3. Inability to speak, read, and understand English or Spanish
  4. Need for any concomitant procedure at the time of MV repair

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: Peri-Operative Standard of Care and Artificial Intelligence Video Education Arm
In this arm, patients will receive AI-generated, interactive, peri-operative video education program in addition to standard of care education
A novel, AI-generated, interactive peri-operative video education program. AI videos will be personalized using medical record chart data, specifically the patient's name, surgery date, and past medical history.
No Intervention: Peri-Operative Standard of Care Education only Arm
In this arm, patients will receive the usual Standard of Care Peri-Operative Education
