Overview

Survey reveals inadequate information for informed consent in anaesthesia, suggesting improvements are needed for patient clarity.

Key Points

  • Informed consent was found to be inadequate, with scores under 80%, highlighting gaps in patient information delivery.
  • Only 18.44% of respondents reported full understanding of the anaesthesia process through questionnaires.
  • Assessment involved 385 subjects who answered questions on various aspects of information adequacy in anaesthesia consent.
  • Findings suggest a need for changes in how information is presented to enhance comprehension and satisfaction.
