Assessing Patient Anxiety During Mohs Micrographic Surgery

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 29 Jan 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study will assess the anxiety that patients are experiencing during a Mohs micrographic surgery. The study will compare the feelings of anxiety experienced by patients returning for Mohs surgery after already undergoing the surgery at least one time to feelings experienced by patients who have never had Mohs surgery before. The study will also compare the feelings experienced by patients who have read a vignette about the typical Mohs experience to the feelings of patients who have not read a vignette.
