Implication

This research reveals that audiovisual aids reduce pre-operative anxiety in patients, suggesting better communication can enhance surgical experiences.

Key Points

Reducing pre-operative anxiety scores improves patient attitudes toward surgery and anaesthesia.
The mean anxiety score decreased significantly from 56.36 to 33.20 after audiovisual information was provided.
Assessment used the Amsterdam Pre-operative Anxiety and Information Scale as well as the Visual Analogue Scale for anxiety.
Findings suggest targeted communication strategies can significantly enhance patient support, especially among those with lower education levels.
