简要总结
The study is randomised control trial. Study recruitment would be carried out after ethical approval. Written and informed consent would be taken from participant meeting inclusion and exclusion criteria and will. e randamized into either intervention (group S) or control group (group C).
Preoperative anxiety will be assessed in participants on the day prior to surgery.
Before participants are approached by us, the impression of the participants anxiety level would be rated by the staff nurses using the visual facial anxiety scale.
Pre-operative anxiety will be assessed by using 2 questionnarire visual anxiety scale:
-
VAS for fear of anaesthesia
-
VAS for fear of surgery
Visual anxiety scale questions are rated from 0 to 100, in which 0 means no anxiety and 100 means maximum anxiety.
This would be followed by the question "Are you afriad of anything at present?" IF report Yes, the participant would be asked to elaborate what things they are afriad of? Participant responses would be noted.
Participants in group S would be counselled using an ’anaesthesia information sheet’. This anaesthesia information sheet has details about meaning of anaesthesia, the preparation for anaesthesia, different types of anaesthesia and pros and corns of each method and post-operative care. This would be followed by clarification of the queries using counselling. That i have attached after performa.
Participants in group C will be given information about anaesthesia as per standard of care.
After an interval of 2 hours, anxiety will be reassessed in both the study groups using the 2 quetionnare visual anxiety scale and if VAS score is more than 4 in any of the group, patients will be advised anti anxiety drugs.
