BACKGROUND/AIM: For cases of musculoskeletal sarcoma of the knee presenting to our institute, we prioritize joint preservation whenever possible. To investigate patient satisfaction and desire for joint preservation, a questionnaire survey was performed.
Surveys were mailed to 62 patients with musculoskeletal sarcoma of the knee. Responses concerning the patient and their families' satisfaction were evaluated on a 5-point Likert scale and their priorities for the surgery were noted as well.
The survey response rate was 67.7%. All but one person were above neutral for the 5-point Likert scale. Overall, the first priority was tumor removal followed by preservation of function.
Patients identified tumor removal as their first priority, which could increase satisfaction. Following that, better preservation of function could also increase patient satisfaction. Joint-preservation was consistent with these priorities.
背景/目的:对于我院收治的膝关节肌肉骨骼肉瘤患者,我们尽可能优先考虑保留关节。为调查患者对保留关节的满意度和意愿,我们开展了一项问卷调查。
向62例膝关节肌肉骨骼肉瘤患者邮寄了调查问卷。采用5分李克特量表评估患者及其家属对治疗的满意度,并记录他们对手术的优先考虑事项。
调查回复率为67.7%。除一人外,所有人在5分李克特量表上的评价均高于中立。总体而言,首要任务是切除肿瘤,其次是保留功能。
患者将切除肿瘤视为首要任务,这可能会提高满意度。在此之后,更好地保留功能也能提高患者满意度。保留关节与这些优先事项是一致的。
