About this study
Prospective, observational, non-randomized study that evaluates the impact of the admission day (J-1 vs J-0) on preoperative anxiety in cardiac surgery patients.
Read the detailed description
The goal of this study is to determine whether the admission day (J-1 or J-0) has a significant effect on preoperative anxiety using the APAIS (Amsterdam Preoperative Anxiety and Information) scale and to identify modifiable factors to improve patient care.
This study includes 400 patients divided into two groups : 200 patients admitted the day before their surgery (J-1) and 200 patients admitted on the day of surgery (J-0).
Patients admitted for cardiac surgery at the University Hospital of Rennes will be invited to participate after verification of the inclusion criteria. A nurse or surgeon will explain the objectives and procedures of the study and provide the patient with an information and non-opposition letter. If the patient agrees, they will be included in the study, and the non-opposition form will be recorded in their medical file.
Patients will complete the questionnaire in two stages : upon admission and just before leaving for the operating room. The estimated time to complete the questionnaire is approximately 15 minutes, with 10 minutes for the first part and 5 minutes for the second part.
