What can help reduce a patient's anxiety and postsurgical pain?

A. Preoperative teaching

B. Preoperative checklist

C. Psychological counseling

D. Preoperative medication - correct answer ✅*Correct Response: A*

Patient teaching before surgery not only helps to reduce a patient's anxiety and
postsurgical pain but it also decreases the amount of anesthesia needed and a
lack of anxiety additionally speeds up wound healing. Preoperative checklists are
a form of nursing documentation that is used to guide and document the care of
the patient before surgery. Psychological counseling is typically NOT necessary
except under highly unusual circumstances and preoperative medication can
decrease the amount of anesthetic needed and respiratory tract secretions but it
does not help with postoperative pain.
