To analyze the satisfaction of patients who underwent hand surgical treatment with the wide-awake local anesthesia no tourniquet (WALANT) anesthesia technique.
This is a cross-sectional study on the satisfaction of patients who underwent hand surgical treatment with the WALANT technique. These patients were treated at the Hand and Microsurgery outpatient clinic of a public hospital from March 2020 to March 2022. They were assessed by the modified Heidelberg questionnaire.
The overall average of satisfaction totaled 3.27 (maximum value 4, SD 0.52, p-value 0.04), representing a good result. Patients' profile characteristics showed no statistically significant differences.
The efficiency of WALANT technique stemmed from the high satisfaction rate of patients undergoing minor surgeries, justifying its use as a routine option in outpatient surgeries in the public system.
分析接受手部手术治疗的患者对清醒局麻无止血带(WALANT)麻醉技术的满意度。
这是一项关于接受WALANT技术手部手术治疗患者满意度的横断面研究。这些患者于2020年3月至2022年3月在一家公立医院的手显微外科门诊接受治疗。通过改良的海德堡问卷对他们进行评估。
总体满意度平均为3.27(最大值4,标准差0.52,p值0.04),结果良好。患者的基本特征无统计学显著差异。
WALANT技术的有效性源于接受小手术患者的高满意度,证明其可作为公共系统门诊手术的常规选择。
