| Core Tip | Patient education is paramount in ensuring appropriate postoperative outcomes and expectations of the perioperative process. This study highlights that current educational tools for patients undergoing abdominal transplantation may be inadequate, and that illustrated booklets serve patients well. Overall, there was a decrease in postoperative healthcare utilization in the form of readmissions, as well as reduced feelings of overwhelm and fear in the preoperative setting. | ||||||
