- Purpose: Establishing a purposive interaction with a patient who is in a vulnerable situation before coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery poses a challenge for the nurse anesthetist.

A total of 11 situations of patient/nurse anesthetist interaction were observed. The data were analyzed using the constant comparative method. Findings:A core category of reassurance emerged from other categories of continuity, confirmation, and control. Continuity was characterized by expedient anesthesia nursing of high quality, confirmation was related to communication in a trusting atmosphere, and control was associated with skilled nursing interventions in the thoracic operating theatre. less thanbrgreater than less thanbrgreater thanConclusions: Reassurance can be achieved through a well-structured anesthesia nursing performance in the thoracic operating theatre, and by focusing on the patient and continuously giving him/her information during the preoperative preparation phase.
