NCT ID NCT07669701

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether giving thyroidectomy patients a QR code that links to an educational video can improve their satisfaction and readiness for discharge. Half of the 192 participants will get standard education plus the QR code video; the other half will get standard education alone. Researchers will compare scores on readiness and satisfaction scales between the two groups.
