Sammanfattning
Purpose: To study the surgery patient’s sensory experiences in the meeting with the operating
theatre and the nurse. Background: The surgical patient’s presurgery anxiety may increase the
surgical stress response. It is important to understand patients’ needs in order to support them
presurgically. Method: Qualitative research and interviews based on a hermeneutic
phenomenological conceptual framework. Analysis: Hermeneutical content interpretation based on
Kvale and Brinkmann's recommendations. Results: The following main themes emerged from the
analysis: «upcoming euthanasia», «authoritarian authorities» and «the assembly line». Conclusion:
The study contributes knowledge about: How overwhelming the surgical patient may experience a
high-tech operating theatre; how these experiences can be transgressive and harmful to the patient
and how interactions can be seen as both caring and authoritarian. A productive and deliberate view
of the surgical patient can show that the individual patient may feel overlooked.
