Abstract
A Randomized controlled trial was used to compare the ambulatory orthopaedic surgery patients' evaluations of Internet-based education (experiment) and face to face education with a nurse (control). Patients in the control group evaluated their education to meet their needs better than patients in the experiment group. Both groups evaluated the education quite positively.
