this study is aimed to determine the effects of video-assisted discharge education of day surgery patients on the perception of quality of discharge Study Hypothesis include the following; H1: The day surgery patients who were exposed to the video-assisted discharge educational intervention will have higher perception on quality of discharge teaching, compared with those who were not exposed to the educational intervention. H2: The day surgery patients who were exposed to the video-assisted discharge educational intervention will have enhanced satisfaction with nursing care quality, compared with those who were not exposed to the educational intervention
This study aims to find out that if a specially designed educational program can help in reduction of pre-operative anxiety in breast cancer patients undergoing surgery as a part of their treatment.
The number of breast cancer survivors is constantly growing. Breast conserving surgery (BCS) is equal or superior to mastectomy both regarding survival and quality of life (QoL). Hence, as many patients as possible should be treated using BCS. The results indicate that the rate of mastectomies in Finland is higher than in Europe, while the rate of reoperations due to insufficient margins after BCS is lower in Finland than globally. With this study we aim to identify the optimal balance of radicality and tissue-conservation in BCS. The aim of this study is to measure the volume of the resected breast tissue and the width of the healthy tissue margins and to compare these with the radiological and histological tumor size and with the size of the breast and their correlation with theoretically optimal and excised volumes. This is a national prospective multicenter study conducted in five breast units. 250 women with primary, unilateral, cTis-T2 breast cancer eligible for BCS will be recruited. The diagnostics and treatment of the patients will be carried out following the Finnish national guideline. The size of the breast and the radiological size of the tumor will be measured preoperatively using mammograms and MRI. The histological tumor volume and the resection volume will be measured postoperatively. The optimal resection volume is calculated as the difference of the total resection volume and the volume of the tumor with an added 1 cm margin. To map the impact of the treatment on QoL and body image, the patients are surveyed using EORTC-QLQ-C30 and BREAST-Q Breast Conserving Therapy Module QoL questionnaires preoperatively, 3-8 weeks postoperatively, and two years after the radiotherapy. Objective evaluation of the aesthetic outcome is assessed by the BCCT.core software that uses medical photographs taken at the same time points as the questionnaires are filled.
This study aims to develop and validate the first set of patient-reported outcome measures for recurrent urinary tract infection (UTI): the Recurrent UTI Symptom Scale and the Recurrent UTI Impact Questionnaire. These tools could be used in clinical practice, clinical trials and research to gather an insight into a patient's perspective of their recurrent UTI symptom severity and its impact on their life, as well as determining any possible improvement or other change in their condition due to interventions (e.g. antibiotic treatment).
This study will be performed to evaluate patients'satisfaction and aesthetic outcomes of single implant restorations in aesthetic zone by using superimposition of intra-oral scan and CBCT.
Breaking bad news is a very stressful and difficult situation for health care professionals, especially clinical doctors and surgeons. Acquiring skills for this sort of communication is very important due to the large volume of times that these professionals will have to deal with it and because it can affect the doctor-patient relationship forever. The objective of this study is to evaluate the skill of surgeons and residents in surgical specialties in breaking bad news to patients and families across Spanish hospitals. This will be done by analyzing the subjects in terms of their knowledge and experience using a specialized questionnaire based on breaking bad news protocol, designed in the "Hospital Sant Joan de Déu" Children's hospital in Barcelona.
The primary objective of this study is to connect patients with community resources to improve social determinants of health. Secondary objectives are improving patient satisfaction within the trauma and general surgery service, enhancement of physician-patient communication, betterment of surgery department Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems scores, and increased understanding of correlations between patient satisfaction and social determinants of health. The investigators hypothesize that (1) directed screening and intervention can have a positive effect for patients and hospitals, (2) directed patient advocacy will have an effect on patients' perception of care, (2) social determinants of health will have an effect on patients' perception of care, and (4) traumatic injury and acute surgery will have an effect on patients' perception of care.
