Brief summary
The researchers will be conducting a prospective randomized trial where the researchers will be introducing an educational video to see whether there is an increase in knowledge scores surrounding cervical cancer, cervical cancer screening, and prevention with HPV vaccinations.
Detailed description
The researchers are conducting a single-blinded randomized controlled trial. All patients who meet exclusion criteria will be recruited at the time of their visit where a Pap smear will be collected at an ob/gyn clinic. If patients agree to participate in the study, they will be randomized into one of two arms. A control arm or an interventional arm. The control arm just includes physician counseling regarding cervical cancer screening/prevention, while the interventional arm includes patient's watching a video on cervical cancer screening/prevention as well as physician counseling. Patient will be administered a survey before and after to assess knowledge and satisfaction scores.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Pre Knowledge score | Will be measured immediately before the appointment. | Knowledge scores regarding cervical cancer screening and prevention. This will be scored as percentage correct out of 13 questions. |
| Post knowledge score | Will be measured immediately after the appointment. | Knowledge scores regarding cervical cancer screening and prevention. This will be scored as percentage correct out of 13 questions. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Post Satisfaction scores | Will be measured immediatley after the provider visit and/or administration or video based educational tool (if randomized to the intervention line). | Satisfaction scores regarding intervention and appointment. Satisfaction questions will be scored on Likert scale from 1-5 with 5 being most satisfied and 1being the least sat |
