    Abstract [en]

    Before a surgical procedure with general anaesthesia, it is common for a variety of patients to experience anxiety and fear. Establishing a professional relationship between the nurse anaesthetic and the patient is essential in order for the patient to feel safe and involved in his or her own care. Keeping the patient informed helps reducing anxiety and fear and increases the patients’ experience of feeling safe. The aim of this thesis was to illuminate patients’ experiences of the information before a surgical intervention. The thesis was designed with a qualitative design, thus qualitative content analysis was used for the data analysis. Four patients classified as ASA-class 1-2, and between the ages of 18 and 65 were included. Urgent surgeries were excluded. Semi structured interviews were used to obtain the data, where two categories emerged, the experience of information and the effect of relatives and close acquaintances. The results showed the patients experienced a feeling of being safe and thereby experienced a reduced amount of anxiety and fear before the surgical procedure. Relatives and close acquaintances could enforce the patients’ feeling of being safe but could also be a source of anxiety and fear depending on their experience prior to the patients care. Due to different patients’ experiences the need involving the information there is a need for further studies.
