BreakFast: Observance of Preoperative Fasting Time. Effect of a Global Sensitization Campaign to Preoperative Fasting Guidelines, a Before-and-after Study.
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.
