Patient satisfaction is an important subjective measure of healthcare quality which contributes to evaluation of the structure, process and outcome of services. The key factor in patient satisfaction is adequate perioperative information of the patient and communication between healthcare providers and patient or patient's kin.
There are few studies in anesthesia that have assessed patient satisfaction and mood-state during regional anesthesia.
The investigators aimed to evaluate factors associated with patient satisfaction from regional anesthesia procedure and mood-state of patients who underwent surgery under regional anesthesia.
Patient satisfaction is an important subjective measure of healthcare quality which contributes to evaluation of the structure, process and outcome of services. Many factors contribute to patient satisfaction, including institutional structure, interpersonal relationships, and a patient' expectations. Age, gender, social insurance, educational and social statue also play role in patient satisfaction. The key factor in patient satisfaction is adequate perioperative information of the patient and communication between healthcare providers and patient or patient's kin.
The success of regional anesthesia is influenced by several factors. Most patients expect uneventful perioperative process. Nevertheless, recovery from surgery and anesthesia is sometimes complicated by major and minor complaints including pain, nausea, vomiting and other. Although there is no scientific or clinical evidence that regional anesthesia is superior to general anesthesia, regional anesthesia has some advantages like keeping consciousness of the patient during surgery, continuation of spontaneous breathing, avoiding the loss of protective reflexes, allowing early mobilization in the postoperative period and shortening the length of hospital stay. However, the major contraindication for regional anesthesia is the patient's unwillingness.

Ran from Jan 2010 to primary completion in Jan 2011, 12 months.
Results were first posted in May 2019, 8 years 4 months after primary completion.
Of 105 non-industry observational studies under Patient Satisfaction, half reached primary completion within 20 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 7 and three quarters within 45. This study's 12 months is below that.
Counting every sponsor, half of 111 studies reached it within 20 months; a quarter within 7 and three quarters within 44.
