Clinical Trial Summary

Cross-sectional non-incentivized worldwide web survey.

A worldwide survey of 1050 respondents showed that proctologic practice has been seriously affected by the pandemic. Age, gender and level of hospital preparedness predicted the change of status of surgical and outpatient activities.

The results of our study may inform the development of strategies to reopen activities while protecting frontline healthcare workers.

Description:

A 27-item survey (namely, 'ProctoLock 2020') was designed and developed by the authors using an online platform ('Online surveys' [formerly BOS - Bristol Online Survey], developed by the University of Bristol) in accordance with the American Association for Public Opinion Research (AAPOR) guidelines and the Checklist for Reporting Results of Internet E-Surveys [CHERRIES]
