The use and evaluation of Web sites in ambulatory surgery patients' education are rare; hence, innovative approaches to educate these patients should be adopted and evaluated. The aim of this study was to describe the creation of and evaluate the utility and usability of an ambulatory orthopedic surgical patient education Web site. A descriptive study design was used. The evaluators were 72 ambulatory orthopedic surgery patients receiving education through a Web site. The data were collected after education preoperatively and 2 weeks postoperatively. Two instruments were used: "Patients' Evaluation of Education" and "Diary of the Use of the Website." Web site evaluators' scores for utility of the Web site ranged from 57.56 to 87.87 of 100. Utility of the Web site evaluations was significantly higher (P < .05) 2 weeks postoperatively than immediately after the operation. Web site evaluators' scores for usability of the Web site ranged from 85.69 to 88.32. The use of this program as educational material for orthopedic surgery patients was supported by the patients' opinions of the usability and utility of the Web site.
门诊手术患者教育中网站的使用和评估很少见；因此，应采用并评估创新方法来教育这些患者。本研究的目的是描述一个门诊骨科手术患者教育网站的创建，并评估其效用和可用性。采用描述性研究设计。评估对象是72名通过网站接受教育的门诊骨科手术患者。在术前教育后和术后2周收集数据。使用了两种工具：“患者教育评估”和“网站使用日记”。网站评估者对网站效用的评分在100分中从57.56到87.87不等。网站效用评估在术后2周显著高于术后即刻（P <.05）。网站评估者对网站可用性的评分在85.69到88.32之间。患者对网站可用性和效用的看法支持了将该项目用作骨科手术患者教育材料。
