Effective warm-up practices can have a positive impact on patient outcomes by:
Reducing Anxiety: Lower anxiety levels can lead to more relaxed muscles, facilitating easier examinations. Enhancing Patient-Provider Relationships: A supportive warm-up process can build trust, leading to better communication and cooperation. Improving Diagnostic Accuracy: With reduced discomfort, patients are less likely to tense up, allowing for more accurate assessments. Preventing Complications: Proper preparation can help prevent complications such as infections or injuries during procedures.
