Summary

The term "outpatient" refers to all the medical, organizational and administrative care that allows the patient to leave the same day the structure where the ambulatory procedure was performed. The usual rule for patients undergoing endoscopic surgery or surgery under general anesthesia is to transport them to the endoscopy or operating room lying on a stretcher, even if they can walk independently.

In recent years, the procedure of bringing the patient standing in the operating room seems to have many advantages. It is readily accepted by patients and may even lessen their anxiety.

Nevertheless, reluctance and fears are sometimes expressed by patients who do not know this new procedure. Our team has introduced this procedure for patients admitted to the ambulatory hospitalization sector and to join the endoscopy sector.

The aim of our work is therefore to objectify the fears expressed by patients who have to go to the endoscopy room before general anesthesia and to evaluate their progress after endoscopy
