Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether an educational video about patients' perioperative experience (period that spans from the time of admission to the hospital to the time of recovery after surgery) will affect the timing of hospital discharge. The researchers will use information collected during this study to create a questionnaire and an educational video related to the patient perioperative experience. The educational video will address patient concerns about the perioperative period and recovery after surgery (post-operative recovery). All participants in this study will be undergoing a MIS hysterectomy according to their routine care in the Gynecology
Interventions
Interviews will be conducted in person or by telephone by an MD on the research team who does not have an ongoing treatment relationship with the patient, and has been trained by the qualitative methods specialist. Interviews will take place over the phone or in person and are anticipated to last approximately 20-30 minutes.
Watch an educational video created by the research team and.will also complete the post-video survey. Those randomized to view the video must complete the post-video survey (Appendix 3), and all patients must complete the Post-Op Survey with the Patient Experience and Decision Regret Scale (Appendix 5) to be evaluable. If not completed, they will be replaced.

Study design
Intervention model description
There will be three phases in this study. Phase I will comprise 25 evaluable women (15 pre-operatively and a separate 10 post-operatively). The results of the pre-operative interviews will be closely monitored for data saturation and we may stop accrual earlier than the planned 15. Phase II will comprise 100 evaluable women. Phase III will comprise 100 evaluable women. All patients will undergo standard-of-care MIS hysterectomy, with standard follow-up with the addition of the interventions and randomization takes place here. Phase III participants will be deemed evaluable if they complete required surveys and if their charts contain sufficient information to determine their day-surgery status.
