A video containing information about the operating room environment and intraoperative care will be watched. The patients who watch the video will be questioned again about the points they do not understand, the issues they are curious about about the perioperative period, and the information they want to learn, and this information will be given verbally by the researchers.

Patients in this group will not be shown any videos and will continue to receive care according to their clinical routine.They will be asked to answer the questions in the patient introduction form the day before the surgical intervention. The surgical anxiety scale will be filled in when patients come from the ward to the preoperative waiting room on the day of surgery. Finally, patients will be asked to answer the questions on VAS and Quality of Recovery-15 (QoR-15) in the patient room at the 24th hour after surgery.

The patients in the experimental group will be shown a video containing information about the operating room environment and care during surgery. The video content includes the following details: the operating room temperature being maintained at 18-24°C; the patient being placed on the operating table by the staff in the presence of an anesthesia technician; the establishment of intravenous access by the anesthesia technician; monitoring of blood pressure, pulse, respiration, and EKG indicators; the insertion of a urinary catheter by the surgical nurse after the patient is anesthetized; post-awakening transfer to the postoperative recovery unit with the anesthesia technician and personnel; reception and monitoring of vital signs, pain assessment, intervention, and observation for a period by a nurse in this unit; and finally, transfer to the General Surgery Service.

The video includes information about various aspects such as preoperative waiting and postoperative recovery units, the operating room, tables with surgical instruments, sterile drapes, and characteristics of surgical team members. Additionally, details are provided regarding the information to be obtained from patients upon arrival in the operating room, positions to be instructed for the surgical procedure and corresponding precautions, communication methods with the patient's family during the surgery, interventions in the postoperative recovery unit, and criteria for transferring patients to the regular service after surgery.

The surgical anxiety scale will be filled out when patients come from the ward to the preoperative waiting room on the day of surgery.Scores between 0 and 60 are taken from the scale. As the score obtained from the scale increases, the individual's anxiety is interpreted as high.
