Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The goal of this before and after observational study is to evaluate the impact of a global sensitization campaign (targeted on surgeons, anesthetist and patients) about pre-operative fasting in an adult population. The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • Does the sensitization campaign reduce fasting time?

  • Does reduce fasting time increase quality of post-operative recovery?

Sensitization campaign will be performed between the before and after phases, it will include:

  • Planned and repeated mandatory on site lecture about pre-operative guidelines for surgeons, anesthetists and paramedics.

  • Reminder display in surgical wards and consults.

  • Individualized fasting cards for patients.

  • Short message service reminder on pre-operative fasting rules for patients.

  • Medical fasting prescription with clear fasting times.
