Level of Anxiety in Patients Undergoing Invasive Foot Surgery

In recent decades, preoperative anxiety has been studied by numerous authors from different medical-surgical specialties, however, there are no studies in the scientific literature on anxiety prior to surgical procedures in the area of minimally invasive foot surgery at the osteoarticular level.

The aim of the present study was to determine the level of preoperative anxiety and information using the Amsterdam Preoperative Anxiety and Information scale in patients undergoing minimally invasive podiatric surgery, as well as to determine the socio-demographic and surgical factors associated with preoperative anxiety.
