Sammanfattning

Aim of this part of the investigation was to uncover the patients’ satisfaction with anaesthesia and operation. The interviews in this proportion of the investigation were part of a clinical trial with investigation of depth of anaesthesia monitoring, and the interviews one week after surgery served to investigate any difference in the patients’ satisfaction with the treatment. The student nurse-anaesthetists in four hospitals contributed each with two procedures, one with monitoring and one without. The investigation included 25 student-nurse anaesthetists and 50 patients. The investigation showed that 33 patients were completely satisfied with the anaesthesia. The rest, 17 patients were less satisfied with the anaesthesia. Most of the dissatisfaction dealt with the postoperative course where slow recovery, nausea, vomiting, and pain after surgery were the three most common. The perioperative course was also commonly commented with remarks about reception, communication, and induction of anaesthesia whereas preanaesthetic complaints were unusual.
