Anesthetists primarily focus on the technical aspects of regional anesthesia, with limited attention to patients' psychological needs during conscious operations. Communication analysis reveals anesthesiologists dominate conversations, prioritizing procedural explanations over emotional support.

Area of Science:

  • Anesthesiology
  • Psychology
  • Communication Studies

Context:

  • Regional anesthesia involves conscious patients requiring psychological support alongside anesthetic safety.
  • Anesthetist-patient communication during regional anesthesia is crucial for patient coping.

Purpose:

  • To investigate the extent to which anesthetist communication meets patients' psychological needs during regional anesthesia.
  • To analyze the communication dynamics between patients and anesthetists during conscious surgery.

Summary:

  • Quantitative speech analysis of 17 regional anesthesia operations showed anesthetists dominated conversations.
  • Anesthetists focused on explaining procedures and ensuring anesthesia efficiency, with minimal engagement with patients' psychological states.
  • Patient participation was passive, with communication ceasing during the operation itself.

Impact:

  • Highlights a gap in addressing patients' psychological needs during regional anesthesia.
  • Suggests a need for improved communication strategies to enhance patient experience and coping during conscious surgery.
  • Informs training for anesthesiologists on balancing technical proficiency with empathetic patient care.
