View on ClinicalTrials.gov →
Summary
The purpose of this study is to explore the effectiveness of video-assisted neonatal lumbar puncture consent processes against a conventional consent discussion to inform parents about pediatric lumbar puncture in the pediatric ED. We hypothesize that having a visual aid in addition to the verbal information presented in the consent process will lead to increased parent comprehension, decision-making, and satisfaction with the consent process. Furthermore, the findings from this study may have broader implications for improving the informed consent process for other medical procedures and interventions in pediatric settings.
