Despite the growing hand surgery literature on postoperative opioid use, there is little research focused on patient-centered interventions. The purpose of this randomized controlled trial was to create a standardized patient education program regarding postoperative pain management after hand surgery and to determine whether that education program would decrease postoperative opioid use. Patients scheduled to undergo ambulatory hand surgery were recruited and randomized to standardized pain management education or standard of care. All patients received a webinar with instructions for study participation, whereas the education group received an additional 10 minutes of education on postoperative pain management. All patients completed a postoperative daily log documenting opioid consumption. The total number of opioid pills consumed was compared between groups. The authors constructed a linear regression model to determine risk factors for postoperative opioid use after surgery. A total of 267 patients were enrolled in the study. One hundred ninety-one patients completed the study (standardized education, n = 93; control group, n = 97). Patients in the standardized education group were more likely to take no opioid medication (42 percent versus 25 percent; p = 0.01) and took significantly fewer opioid pills (median, two) than those in the control group (median, five) (p < 0.001). Standardized education predicted decreased postoperative opioid pill consumption, whereas higher number of pills prescribed and a history of psychiatric illness were risk factors for increasing opioid use. Perioperative patient education and limitation of postoperative opioid prescription sizes reduced postoperative opioid use following ambulatory hand surgery. Therapeutic, II. Therapeutic, II.
