About this study

Official title: Assessment of Anxiety Incidence Before Regional Anesthesia Achieving.

We want to assess the level of anxiety of patients who arrive in the operating room before performing regional anesthesia.

Read the detailed description

When patients arrive in the operating room, we want to submit them a validated questionnaire (APAIS score and STAI-6 score) to assess their anxiety. After that, the care (anesthesia and surgeries) will take place in a very usual way and similar to our standards of care.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. APAIS score

    anxiety measurement score

    Measured: Achievement of the score on arrival at the operating area (between 15-30 minutes before to realise the regional anesthesia block). Only one determination of the score is made

  2. STAI-6 score

    anxiety measurement score

    Measured: Achievement of the score on arrival at the operating area (between 15-30 minutes before to realise the regional anesthesia block). Only one determination of the score is made
