To study the effect of preoperative multimedia visit in laparoscopic inguinal hernia surgery.

160 cases of laparoscopic inguinal hernia were selected from Beijing Chaoyang Hospital, Capital Medical University. The study period was from February to September 2021. All patients were randomly divided into the control group and the study group by drawing lots, with 80 patients in each group. The control group provided routine preoperative interview, and the study group provided multimedia preoperative interview. The effects of the two different visit methods were evaluated, and the changes in mean arterial pressure and heart rate after entering the room were compared between the two groups, as well as the degree of preoperative anxiety, and postoperative satisfaction of patients were investigated.

The score of anxiety in the study group (34.35±1.4) was significantly better than that in the control group (42.58±2.08), and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The average arterial pressure increased (12.01±1.06) mmHg and heart rate accelerated (8.1±0.73) times/min after intrusions in the study group, which was better than that in the control group (17.95±1.26) mmHg and (13.7±1.21) times/min. Patients in the surgical satisfaction study group (97.85±0.27) score was better than those in the control group (95.11±0.45) score, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.001).

The application of multimedia to preoperative interviews in daytime operation mode can reduce preoperative anxiety and stress reactions caused by unhealthy psychological states, thus reducing the risk of operation and improving the satisfaction of patients. It can also speed up day surgery turnover.
