Changes in the economic climate and the delivery of health care require that preoperative information programmes are effective and efficiently implemented. In order to be effective the pre-operative programme must meet the information needs of intensive care unit (ICU) patients and their relatives. Efficiency can be achieved through a structured pre-operative programme which provides a framework for teaching. The need to develop an ICU information booklet in a large teaching hospital in Northern Ireland has become essential to provide relevant information and improve the quality of service for patients and relatives, as set out in the White Paper, 'Working for Patients', (DoH, 1989). The first step in establishing a patient education programme was to ascertain patients' and relatives' informational needs. A 'needs assessment' identified the pre-operative information needs of ICU patients and their relatives (McGaughey, 1994) and the findings were used to plan and publish an information booklet. The ICU booklet provides a structure for preoperative visits to ensure that patients and relatives information needs are met.
经济气候的变化以及医疗保健的提供方式要求术前信息项目能够有效且高效地实施。为了达到有效，术前项目必须满足重症监护病房（ICU）患者及其亲属的信息需求。通过提供教学框架的结构化术前项目可以实现效率。在北爱尔兰的一家大型教学医院编写一本ICU信息手册变得至关重要，以便提供相关信息并提高为患者及其亲属提供的服务质量，正如白皮书《为患者服务》（卫生部，1989年）中所阐述的那样。建立患者教育项目的第一步是确定患者及其亲属的信息需求。一项“需求评估”确定了ICU患者及其亲属的术前信息需求（麦高希，1994年），研究结果被用于规划和出版一本信息手册。ICU手册为术前探访提供了一个框架，以确保患者及其亲属的信息需求得到满足。
