postoperative recovery - Quality of recovery score 15 - Arabic
Brief summary
Anesthesia practice is not only centered on the patient's safety and well-being through the perioperative period but also on enhancing his overall recovery experience. This study aims to provide an adapted questionnaire for the Arabic-speaking population as a measuring tool of the quality of recovery after surgery.
Detailed description
With the increasing number of anesthesia procedures performed every year, the concept of rapid rehabilitation after surgery has become a primary goal of the perioperative management of patients. This postoperative recovery concerns not only the physical aspect but also encompasses the general concept of well-being and enhancement of the patient's experience. There are many tools to assess postoperative recovery. However, none has been validated within the Moroccan surgical population. The Qor-15 (Quality of Recovery) score is a scale for measuring postoperative recovery. It was developed in 2013 by Myles et al and has been validated in a widely variable population \[1\]. It includes 15 items, each rated from 0 to 10. Our objective is to validate the Arabic version of the QOR-15Ar within a Moroccan surgical population.
Interventions
The Arabic version of the Postoperative Quality of Recovery Score 15 to be completed twice by the patients: once preoperatively and once within 24 to 48 hours postoperatively.
