Education can be lost amid the fast pace of advanced technology, decreased financial reimbursement, and increased volume of ambulatory surgery. Preoperative education is important to the patient, family, physicians, and nurses, and it can be provided in many ways. This article describes a preoperative registration education program developed at Hartford Memorial Hospital. Hartford's experience has shown that the program facilitated decreased anxiety and earlier patient discharge, with resultant decrease in cost of hospitalization. Other institutions can tailor this patient-focused education program to their needs. Preoperative education is both an important and rewarding area of nursing and should not be lost in the fast-paced health care environment.
在先进技术发展的快节奏、财务报销减少以及门诊手术量增加的情况下，教育可能会被忽视。术前教育对患者、家属、医生和护士都很重要，并且可以通过多种方式提供。本文介绍了哈特福德纪念医院制定的术前登记教育计划。哈特福德的经验表明，该计划有助于减轻焦虑并使患者更早出院，从而降低住院成本。其他机构可以根据自身需求调整这个以患者为中心的教育计划。术前教育是护理工作中一个重要且有意义的领域，在快节奏的医疗环境中不应被忽视。
