In order to enable a dignified surrender, it is essential that the nurse anesthetist/anesthesiologist understands the patient's experience of loss of control.

The findings show that it is possible to measure the concept of surrendering by means of four dimensions as preparation by avoidance, control, preparation by understanding, and acceptance, although the dimensional variance of 43% could be considered weak. The ASI will constitute context-specific patient-reported experience measures for anesthesia, whereas further item refinement and testing of the ASI are necessary to achieve a better variance.

In Sweden, blood culture sampling is a frequently used technical procedure carried out by the emergency nurses in the emergency departments (ED) and requires sufficient time and attention when being performed. Contamination during blood culture sampling is a frequent problem, especially in EDs, which can lead to difficulties in giving the patient the right diagnosis and treatment (Cervero et al., 2019). The contamination usually occurs when the microorganism, mainly coagulant negative staphylococci (CNS), which normally exists on the patient's skin, come into contact with the sterile blood culture equipment (Garcia et al., 2015). The negative consequences of contaminated blood culture are prolonged patient treatment with increased healthcare costs and possible

Objective: The intraoperative setting is a complex environment, where nurse anaesthetists' are required to handle an intense flow of information. Apart from intraoperative time constraints and pressure to perform, little is known about nurse anesthetists' concerns prior to administering anaesthesia. Therefore, the aim of this study is to answer the key questions; what are nurse anaesthetists' main concerns prior to and during anaesthesia induction and how do they cope with them? Methods: Constructivist grounded theory was used to illuminate the context and specific conditions under which the informants performed anaesthesia nursing. Fifteen nurse anaesthetists were interviewed using an open-ended method. Results: The common denominator for the informants was their active efforts to construct grounds for recognition of the other's state of surrendering associated with anaesthesia induction. The core category; constructing recognition of the Other's state of surrendering, is supported by three main categories; Creating a trusting relationship, Working with the technology and Establishing recognition. Conclusion: The act of recognition highlights the healthcare organisation's obligation to provide sufficient time for the ethical practice of anaesthesia, which presupposes awareness on the part of anaesthesia staff of their own professional approach.
