Sponsor's own description

Opioids are commonly prescribed for surgical patients to treat moderate to severe pain after surgery. However, opioids can be associated with serious complications such as respiratory depression and death. Currently, it is not routine practice to educate surgical patients about the risks of opioids and how to safely use opioids after surgery. The investigators have developed an educational pamphlet specifically for surgical patients to educate them about the safe use of opioids. The objective of this pilot study is to determine the usability and readability of an educational pamphlet about the safe use, proper storage and disposal of opioids. The educational pamphlet will be modified based on the feedback from the pilot study and subsequently used for a randomized controlled trial.
