Interventions and Outcome Measures

Arms

experimental: Participants undergoing arthroscopy surgery watching a nutritional video prior to surgery

Patients will watch a nutritional education video before undergoing surgery. The nutritional video will be a recorded video from one of UAB's nutritionists highlighting the importance of quality nutrition for post-operative recovery. Patients will receive standard of care surgery and post-operative treatment for their arthroscopic surgery. At 6 weeks, patients will be asked to fill out the REAPS questionnaire.

active comparator: Participants undergoing arthroscopy surgery without a nutritional video prior to surgery

Patients will receive standard of care surgery and post-operative treatment for their arthroscopic surgery. At 6 weeks, patients will be asked to fill out the REAPS questionnaire.
