Zusammenfassung

Although, training in Anaesthesiology and postoperative care is nowadays, in our country, highly qualified and of exceptional quality, it is common to find important differences among the preoperative reports done by different anaesthetists of different hospitals, or even among those working in the same hospital. Even more, the lack of knowledge of all related with the laws and rules that regulate the patient's right to receive information, results in an uneven delivery of the information by different anaesthetists for one same surgical procedure. We show here the results of analyzing a hundred preoperative anaesthetic reports done in the Sanitas la Moraleja hospital, with their corresponding 100 informed consents. We came upon surprising results as we found that 85% of them were incomplete and thus deficient. Regarding the informed consents 9 had defects regarding the absence of signature or of personalized risks.
