Summary

This study looks at whether showing a short video to pregnant women at least 24 hours before a planned C-section helps them better understand the risks and benefits of anesthesia. Researchers will compare how well these women make informed decisions about their care versus those who only get the standard talk with their doctor. About 70 English-speaking adults will take part.
