The Use of 3D Printed Models in Mohs Micrographic Surgery

Patients undergoing Mohs micrographic surgery frequently experience anxiety. It has been
suggested that enhanced patient education prior to the procedure may decrease patient
anxiety. The purpose of the study is to investigate if optimized patient education enhances
patient understanding, decreases patient anxiety and increases patient satisfaction.

1. To investigate if patient education with a 3 dimensional printed (3DP) Mohs micrographic
surgery (MMS) model and standardized script protocol increases patient understanding of
MMS more than current standard of care (control group) at the University Hospitals
Cleveland Medical Center MMS Clinics.

2. To investigate if patient education with a 3DP MMS model and standardized script
protocol decreases perioperative patient anxiety during MMS more than current standard
of care (control group) at the University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center MMS
Clinics.

3. To evaluate if patient satisfaction with a 3DP MMS model and standardized script
protocol increases patient satisfaction during MMS more than current standard of care
(control group) at the University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center MMS Clinics.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Patients undergoing Mohs Micrographic Surgery at University Hospitals Cleveland
Medical Center, Chagrin Highlands and Westlake Campus

- Capable of reading and completing all subjective questionnaires

Exclusion Criteria:

- Cannot complete the survey measures independently for any reason
