Sumario:BACKGROUND: Preoperative anesthesia evaluation is beginning of all anesthesia care. It enables the anesthetists to know general health status of parturient, choose of anesthesia options and discuss the possible complication regarding perioperative anesthesia care. It also creates chance for parturient to know the anesthetist, about anesthesia type as well as possible anesthesia care related complications. OBJECTIVE: To assess maternal satisfaction with the practice of preoperative anesthesia evaluation among patients underwent elective cesarean delivery. METHODS: This study was a cross-sectional study design conducted from March 1to April 30, 2021. All consecutive parturient that were scheduled for elective cesarean delivery under anesthesia during the study period were interviewed postoperatively after 24 h using semi structure questioner. A checklists, which developed based on the hospital's anesthetic evaluation sheet and Royal Collage of Anesthetist standards (RCOA) were used for data collection. Data were entered in SPSS version 20 and both descriptive and analytic statics analysis were performed. RESULT: A total of 157 elective patients undergoing elective cesarean section were included with response rate of 96.9%. All patients (100%) were evaluated in the preoperative period. However, 53(33.8%) of patients were receiving information regarding postoperative nausea and vomiting during the preoperative period compared to the standards. Educational level of the anesthetist, fasting instruction, information regarding PONV and information regarding type of anesthesia were significantly associated with overall maternal satisfaction to current practice of preoperative anesthesia evaluation. CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION: The practice of delivering important information's to parturient during the preoperative anesthesia evaluation was low compared to the standard. Therefore, we recommend anesthesia professionals to give detail explanation regarding the post-operative pain management option, possible inevitable complications and proper rapport with the clients.
