Brief Summary

Preoperative anxiety in surgical patients imposes stress and dissatisfaction.It results in altered neuroendocrine response and various perioperative complications. Preoperative anxiety can affect psychological and physiological parameters  by activation of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis. It can lead to deleterious effects on the haemodynamic parameters during the perioperative period; affect the overall anaesthesia management and surgical outcome by delayed awakening, post-operative pain, nausea– vomiting, delayed wound healing, and post-operative cardiac events during the intraoperative period. Pharmacological measures used to reduce preoperative anxiety have their associated adverse effects. Preoperative anaesthesia education is one of the nonpharmacological tools to reduce anxiety.Hence this study is designed to evaluate the effect of pre operative counseling of patients using anaesthesia information sheet on anaesthesia associated pre operative anxiety.
