Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a cross-sectional study to investigate general patient satisfaction and inpatients' experiences with integrative therapies in an anthroposophic hospital. Participants will be recruited at the Filderklinik, a hospital in southwestern Germany that uses anthroposophic medicine (AM) on a broad basis. Inpatients who have received at least 10 treatments with one or more of the different integrative therapy methods will be asked for their willingness to participate. After providing written informed consent, participants will complete a questionnaire on integrative therapies received and overall patient satisfaction. In addition, data from the clinic database will be analyzed and cross-checked with the questionnaire data to verify and specify information about the participating sample. The focus of the study is to assess general patient satisfaction and experience with integrative therapy methods among inpatients at the Filderklinik.
