Summary

Patient education is continuously becoming more important to enable patients to participate in making decisions regarding their medical treatment. Specifically, this is also the case for preoperative education on anesthesia. Worldwide, there are many initiatives to improve preoperative patient education and subsequent level of knowledge of anesthesia, for example by using digital aids. The demand for such aids has increased significantly since the start of the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic to facilitate remote preoperative anesthesiological screening. Although many videos to educate patients on anesthesia have been developed and circulate on the internet, there has been little effort to compare this method of educating patients with the traditional one-on-one conversation between the anesthesiologist and the patient.

Objective: To compare short, mid-and long term retention of knowledge after education on anesthesia by watching a video to the traditional one-on-one explanation by the anaesthesiologist.
