Turkish Validity and Reliability Study of Pediatric Anesthesia Satisfaction Scale

• Conditions: Pediatric Anesthesia
• Interventions: Other: Survey

• Registration Number: NCT06121310
• Lead Sponsor: Bozok University

Brief Summary

Strategies to increase patient satisfaction have a positive effect on clinical care. Therefore, evaluation of emotional and psychological satisfaction and satisfaction can increase the quality of anesthetic care. The number of satisfaction evaluation studies, especially for pediatric patients who have undergone surgery, is very few, and the validity and reliability of the existing satisfaction scoring systems in the Turkish population has not yet been established. As a result of this study, it will be possible to use a Turkish validity and reliability scale that can evaluate the satisfaction levels of pediatric patients and parents after anesthesia, which is planned to be developed, to be used in the studies of improving health services, increasing the quality of the hospital, and using it in scientific studies by researchers and academicians in Türkiye.The aim of this study is to conduct a Turkish validity and reliability study by examining the reliability, validity, acceptability and reproducibility of a pediatric patient and parent satisfaction questionnaire previously validated in English.

The research data will be realized by the face-to-face filling of the Turkish version of the pediatric anesthesia satisfaction scale, which has been published in the literature, by the child and their parents.

The Turkish version of the scale in question will be asked to fill out the questionnaire within the first hour of being transferred from the operating room to the pediatric surgery service after the surgery/surgical procedure for all parents who have been operated by Yozgat Bozok University Research and Practice Hospital Pediatric Surgery. The delivery of the questionnaire and its face-to-face filling process will be carried out by an anesthesiologist (specialist or specialist student) different from the relevant anesthesiologist, who is responsible for the outpatient evaluation of the patient and the anesthesia management in the peroperative period, so that the respondent is not affected by any embarrassment, intentional reasons, etc.
