Brief Summary

A preoperative reception unit (PORU) has been created at Foch Hospital to receive patients needing surgery and entering the same day of the operation (D0) as part of the reduction in average lengths of stay. This new mode of care requires a specific organization which requires the patient to become the main actor in his preparation.To optimize and make this new care fluid, a phone nurse consultation has been set up to support patients. The objective of this consultation is to discuss with the patient the different stages of his journey. The nurse checks the patient's level of information and reformulates if necessary so that he can receive clear and appropriate information, verifies that the patient has correctly integrated all that is expected for his preoperative preparation. It thus makes it possible to anticipate the issues that could impact the patient care process.The relevance of this consultation has never been assessed. However, the nurses have always good feedback from patients who are often surprised, satisfied with this interview and attentive. On the other hand, nurses who receive patients on the day of their intervention in PORU observe better fluidity in the care of patients who have had a phone nurse consultation. The patient is better prepared, which allows simpler and faster care. This randomized controlled study will allow investigators to validate the perception of nurse and to assess the relevance of this phone nurse consultation in the best preoperative preparation of patients, the management of preoperative anxiety and the fluidity of patient care.

Conditions

Surgery

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Compliance with preoperative medical preparation instructions between the 2 groups (with and without preoperative nurse consultation).

  At the intervention day (just before surgery)

Secondary Outcomes (4)

• Compliance with preoperative administrative preparation instructions between the 2 groups (with and without preoperative telephone nurse consultation).

  At the intervention day (just before surgery)

• Benefit of a preoperative nurse consultation on patient anxiety

  at inclusion and at the intervention day (just before surgery)

• Patient's satisfaction regarding preoperative support

  At the intervention day (just before surgery)

• Patient's satisfaction regarding the phone nurse consultation

  At the intervention day (just before surgery)

Study Arms (2)

Phone Nurse Consultation

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients will benefit, in addition to the usual care, including a reminder by the secretary of the PORU the day before the operation, a phone call from nurse no later than 72 hours before surgery to explain and remind them of the instructions for preoperative preparation and answer any questions they may have.

Other: Phone Nurse consultation

Standard care

NO INTERVENTION

Patients in this group will follow the usual preparation schedule including a reminder by the secretary of the PORU the day before the operation.
