This study seeks to determine if watching a preoperative educational video influences opioid consumption and proper disposal following elective hand surgery. Patients undergoing elective hand surgery are randomized to either watch a preoperative educational video or not. Patients are asked to record their pain medication usage postoperatively, as well as their daily pain levels and satisfaction with their pain control after surgery.
