Gender gap in anesthesia talk? new study investigates
NCT ID NCT06814236
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether a patient's gender affects how they talk with their anesthesiologist about risks before surgery. Researchers will interview 100 patients to see if men and women understand and ask about anesthesia risks differently. The goal is to improve informed consent conversations so they better meet each patient's needs.
