Summary

The aim of the study is to investigate the effect of preoperative patient education on the level of properative anxiety and postoperative psychosocial outcomes. Participants will be assigned to one of the 3 study groups: on-line education, contact education and control (no preoperative education). The investigators will evaluate preoperative anxiety level at different time points (baseline at 2 weeks before the surgery, at the evening before the surgery and postoperatively) and investigate dynamics of anxiety in the perioperative period. Additional qualitative interview by psychologists will be performed to evaluate the potential causes of increased/decreased preoperative anxiety.

Impact on postoperative complications, well-being of the participant, quality of recovery and satisfaction with medical care will also be evaluated.
