The study investigated whether preoperative video-based patient education\u00a0was non-inferior to postoperative in-person education on pain-related self-efficacy and assessed the effects of such an\u00a0approach on disability and fear of movement in patients undergoing arthroscopic partial meniscectomy.Methods: One hundred sixty-six patients undergoing arthroscopic partial meniscectomy were randomized into a video-based\u00a0(n = 83) or control group (n = 83). The video-based group received a video clip including educational content and home-based\u00a0exercises within 5 days before surgery, while the control group received in-person education and instructions for home-based exercises\u00a0a few hours after surgery. Participants were assessed for self-efficacy (Pain Self-Efficacy Questionnaire - PSEQ), knee function\u00a0(Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index - WOMAC), and kinesiophobia (Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia\u00a0- TSK) 5 days before surgery (T0), after the 2-week training (T1), and 6 weeks after surgery (T2).Results: Video-based education was non-inferior to in-person education for PSEQ scores at T1 (MD: -0.6, 1-sided 95% lower\u00a0bound: -3.8) and T2 (MD: -0.5, 1-sided 95% lower bound: -3.5). Moreover, the video-based group revealed a better TSK score\u00a0than the control group at T2, while no between-group differences over time were found for WOMAC.Conclusions: Preoperative video-based education was not inferior to postoperative in-person education on pain-related selfefficacy\u00a0and revealed reduced fear of movement in patients undergoing arthroscopic partial meniscectomy.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.33393\/aop.2026.3926","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,15]],"date-time":"2026-09-15T10:45:16Z","timestamp":1789469116000},"page":"166-172","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Video-based education is non-inferior to in-person education in patients undergoing arthroscopic partial meniscectomy: a non-inferiority randomized controlled trial"],"prefix":"10.33393","volume":"16","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0005-2394-8683","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Alessia","family":"Bertola","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Physiotherapy Unit, IRCCS Humanitas Research Hospital, via Manzoni 56, 20089 Rozzano, Milan - Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Damiana","family":"Cifoletti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Physiotherapy Unit, IRCCS Humanitas Research Hospital, via Manzoni 56, 20089 Rozzano, Milan - Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0003-2130-2796","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Elena Maria","family":"Pontieri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Physiotherapy Unit, IRCCS Humanitas Research Hospital, via Manzoni 56, 20089 Rozzano, Milan - Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nicola","family":"Catalano","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Physiotherapy Unit, IRCCS Humanitas Research Hospital, via Manzoni 56, 20089 Rozzano, Milan - Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Paola","family":"Adamo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Physiotherapy Unit, IRCCS Humanitas Research Hospital, via Manzoni 56, 20089 Rozzano, Milan - Italy and Department of Biomedical Sciences, Humanitas University, via Rita Levi Montalcini 4, 20072 Pieve Emanuele, Milan - Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Roberto","family":"Gatti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Physiotherapy Unit, IRCCS Humanitas Research Hospital, via Manzoni 56, 20089 Rozzano, Milan - Italy and Department of Biomedical Sciences, Humanitas University, via Rita Levi Montalcini 4, 20072 Pieve Emanuele, Milan - Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1771-2365","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Federico","family":"Temporiti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Physiotherapy Unit, IRCCS Humanitas Research Hospital, via Manzoni 56, 20089 Rozzano, Milan - Italy and Department of Biomedical Sciences, Humanitas University, via Rita Levi Montalcini 4, 20072 Pieve Emanuele, Milan - Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"18642","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"19082","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Fox AJ, Wanivenhaus F, Burge AJ, et al.
