Improving Postoperative Outcomes Using Preoperative Patient Education.

Preoperative education has been shown to improve postoperative outcomes, yet accessible and individualized information remains limited. This study presents an AI-based Chatbot designed to support patients through interactive and understandable preoperative guidance. Initial testing shows that the AI-Chatbot adapts to patient questions and promotes interaction, although occasional hallucinations occur. These findings highlight the potential of AI tools to enhance patient-centred education in anaesthesiology and perioperative anaesthetic care.
