2. Stratification of subjects' educational attainment as elementary, middle school, high school, college

Brief summary: The aim of this study was to systematically assess the coverage of anesthesiology residents' explanations of the content of the visit during the preoperative anesthesia visit and the patients' understanding of the content of the anesthesia approach through the physician's explanations.

Detailed description: Physician Component:

In order to minimize the change of the interview content due to third-party supervision, the collected data were analyzed in the form of a questionnaire about the content of the visit after the preoperative visit by anesthesiology residents, including the main content of the visit, the duration of the visit, and the presumed level of patient's understanding of the anesthesia informed consent form.

Patient section:

To investigate the degree of patients' understanding of the contents of the anesthesia visit after listening to the visit. A questionnaire was used to collect the data, which included the content of the visit that the patients could recall, their level of understanding of the content explained by the physician, their concerns, and suggestions for improvement that could be taken to promote patient understanding.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* ASA I-II
* Patients who have not previously undergone surgery under general anesthesia
* Patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy or laparoscopic appendectomy

Exclusion Criteria:

* Subjects who do not wish to participate in this study
* Patients with visual or auditory impairment
* Patients who are completely unable to understand the content of the communication or have communication difficulties

Primary outcomes:
measure: Patients' understanding of the content related to anesthesia visit after the preoperative visit with anesthesiology residents
timeFrame: Postoperative visit （one day after surgery）
Secondary outcomes:
measure: Patient recall of what anesthesiology residents mentioned during the preoperative visit vs. what anesthesiology residents mentioned during the preoperative visit
timeFrame: resident-side：Pre-operative visit-one day before surgery；patient-side：Post-operative visit-one day after surgery
measure: Stratified analysis of subjects according to different age/education levels to explore the relevance in understanding the content of the preoperative visit for anesthesia
timeFrame: Postoperative visit （one day after surgery）
Other outcomes:
measure: Patient concerns in the content of the preoperative approach
timeFrame: Postoperative visit （one day after surgery）
measure: Patients' suggestions for improving the efficiency of preoperative anesthesia visits
timeFrame: Postoperative visit （one day after surgery）
