title: [Usefulness and problems of pre- and post-operative anesthesia evaluation clinic].
abstract: A system of preoperative anesthesia evaluation clinic can provide a chance to evaluate the surgical patients effectively and to obtain an informed consent for anesthesia from the patients with their family. To organize this system effectively, communications with the doctors, nurses and comedical staffs in other departments/ sections are necessary. Postoperative anesthesia evaluation can be performed to gather information about patient satisfaction and postoperative anesthesia-related complications. This information can be used as a feedback to each anesthesiologist to improve anesthetic management. Establishment of anesthesia evaluation clinic can improve the safety and quality of anesthesia as well as efficiency of hospital management.
