Purpose: This study aimed to verify the effects of preoperative video education on delirium and anxiety in elderly patients with general anesthesia.
Methods: This study used quasi-experimental research with a non-equivalent control group non-synchronized design.
Participants were 70 elderly patients who had undergone of surgery under general anesthesia (35 in the experimental group and 35 in the control group). Preoperative video education was given to the experimental group. Subjective anxiety, blood pressure, pulse and delirium were measured. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, test of homogeneity in pretest, independent t-tests, and two-way repeated measures ANOVA with the SPSS/Win 22.0 program.
Results: Delirium of the experimental group was significantly lower than that of the control group. Subjective anxiety measured using visual analogue scale was not significantly different between the two groups.
However, there was a significant difference in the interaction between the group and time. There was no significant difference in physiological anxiety measured using systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and pulse between the two groups.
Conclusion: The findings suggest that preoperative video education may contribute to reducing delirium and subjective anxiety for elderly patients after surgery.
