Summary

This study surveyed 251 doctors, nurses, and other operating room staff in Turkey about their beliefs on whether patients under general anesthesia can subconsciously hear and be affected by conversations. The goal was to understand how aware health professionals are of this possibility and their views on related ethical issues. The study did not involve any treatment or direct patient care.
