Abstract:
Research has demonstrated the effect of preparatory information in reducing patient's negative responses to stressful experiences. Information about diagnostic procedures is unavailable to the clinicians due to rapidly changing technology and lack of exposure to the diagnostic experience. Therefore the purpose of this project was to disseminate procedure related sensory to the clinician to patients through the use of mainframe terminals and printers.
