Reduction in preanesthesia evaluations
The Adult Preanesthesia Patient Education Kit was designed and developed by a multidisciplinary team of senior physicians in the fields of anesthesiology, intensive care and pain.
Patient engagement is personalized based on information entered by the surgery coordinator and by the patient, who fill out a preoperative questionnaire.
Patients whose background condition does not justify a pre-anesthesia evaluation and have viewed a personalized video, are exempted from a pre-anesthesia evaluation.
