Patient Reported Experience in Endoscopic Ultrasound

Sponsor: IRCCS San Raffaele

Summary

The evaluation of the patient's experience is becoming increasingly important as a better patient experience can improve the quality of the delivered health service. Patient-reported experience measures (PREMs) are self-reported assessment tools provided by patients about their experience during any health event. There are few PREMs's instruments in the field of gastrointestinal endoscopy, and none is specific for Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS). The aim of this study is to develop a questionnaire to evaluate the experience of patients undergoing EUS, identifying and prioritizing the factors related to the patient's experience. In order of it, expected results are developing a valid tool of question to value patients experience during EUS and, for ranking, it is iphotized that will be more correlation with patients's and nurses's answer that clinicians's one. In literature is described that nurse's view and patient's view are more similar especially in those aspects concerning empatics and psychological aspects.
