The aim of this study is to test the validity of the Perception of Quality in Anesthesia (PQA) and language compatibility.

Detailed Description

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

The Perception of Quality in Anesthesia (PQA) scale was developed by Hocking et al. in 2013 to measure the quality of anesthesia service received by patients who underwent surgery under anesthesia. The survey consists of 16 questions. Researchers ask patients undergoing surgery to complete the PQA questionnaire 24 hours after surgery. The researcher visits patients in hospital rooms or makes phone calls the day after surgery.
