简要总结
The effect and impact of postponing cardiac surgery / creating a waiting list as a result of COVID-19 on patients, both psychologically and symptomatically on three groups of patients:
- The degree of anxiety and/or depression induced by their altered medical care trajectory.
- The incidence of medical problems induced by deferred elective surgery or delayed postoperative ambulatory visit
- The occurrence of reduced access to medical and psychological help
详细描述
A prospective study by means of a questionnaire, specifically designed for each of the three groups.
- Adult patients whose operation date has been deferred
- Patients who did not have had an operation date
- Patients who have been operating on during the month before
Each group will receive a twofold questionnaire:
Part I: Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), a robust questionnaire used for hospitalized and non-hospitalized patients gauging the degree of anxiety and/or depression, irrespective of their specific medical condition. All three groups receive the same list of questions.
-Part II: a questionnaire made up specifically for issues concerning the medical/psychological/access aspects during the COVID-19 outbreak. Each of the three groups will receive a questionnaire, adapted to the group they are assigned to.
