Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Pre-anesthesia visit for scheduled surgery is mandatory by law in France. During this visit, patients should be informed of the different available technics of anesthesia (i.e. general or loco-regional) and of their own risks .

Nowadays, many informations are given through written paper and leaflets, just before the consultation. In addition, patients need usually to wait for the doctor. This time may be used to give information, and new information's support, such as videos, may be used.

The aim of this study is to evaluated if a robot (PEPPER), who is able to answer to patients and to give informations, may increase the satisfaction of patients having a pre anesthesia visit for a scheduled surgery.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Before- after observational study.

All adult patients (age≄18 yrs) coming for a pre-anesthesia visit will be proposed to fulfill a questionnaire regarding their satisfaction and the quality of information they received.

* in the first period, patients will receive paper informations before the anesthesia visit.
* in the second period, they will have the same paper informations but a robot PEPPER will also stand in the waiting room and propose to the patients to give them informations about anesthesia, patients journey, risks, blood transfusion etc...
