Clinical Trial Summary

Studies shows that reduced nervousness before anaesthesia may improve a course past anaesthesia. Therefore it is interesting to investigate how we can best help patients shortly before anaesthesia. A RCT with three intervention arms (with different personal support) and a control arm (with usual personal support) is therefore performed.

Hypothesis: Nervousness is reduced by the new interventions compared to the usual help provided.


Clinical Trial Description

All patients receive behavioral support the last half hour before anaesthesia, but at different times and provided by persons with different connection to the patients.

The last two patients in all arms will be interviewed about their experiences with the help offered.

Statistic will provide results in the quantitative part of the study and analysis and interpretation following ideas of the French philosopher Poul Ricoeur will provide results in the qualitative part of the study. ;
