Patient Perception on the Role of Anesthesiologists: a Survey on the Belgian Perspective
In Brief
An observational study evaluating Survey for Anesthesia and Surgery. Completed, enrolled 350 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Previous studies showed that the role of the anesthesiologist, their education and role within the hospital is not known by the general public. The lack of knowledge about anesthesia can be an important factor in patients' fear before the planned surgery and can therefore impact patient's general satisfaction. By means of a survey in patients planned for elective surgery, the investigators want to investigate the perception of patients regarding the anesthesiologist, their education and role within the hospital, the general knowledge of the patient regarding anesthesia and possible pre-operative fears and concerns.
