Abstract

Objective \nTo investigate and analyze the nursing service demand and satisfaction of the operation patients in department of general surgery outpatient. \n \n \nMethods \nA total of 516 operation patients were selected from the outpatient surgery in Eastern Hospital Affiliated to Tongji University from July to December 2017 were selected by convenience sampling method. Nursing service demand questionnaire and satisfaction questionnaire were applied in the investigation. \n \n \nResults \nThe average score of demand for nursing services of 516 patients was (3.72±0.62) , which was between need and general. The highest requirement before operation was to know the time of the operation and the time needed for the operation. The highest requirement during operation was that I would not feel pain and discomfort. The highest requirement after operation was to tell me how to seek help if I got home uncomfortable. The average score of nursing satisfaction was (4.04±0.48) , which was between great satisfaction and satisfaction. The most unsatisfactory thing for patients is that the waiting time is more than 30 minutes. There were significant differences in the needs of pre-operative, intraoperative and post-operative nursing services among patients of different ages (P<0.05) . \n \n \nConclusions \nThere are many demands for nursing services in outpatients in department of general surgery. Operating rooms should cooperate with multiple departments to provide targeted nursing services to meet the needs of patients. Hospitals should constantly optimize the process of patients medical treatment, adopt the method of time-division appointment, shorten the waiting time of patients, and improve patients satisfaction. \n \n \nKey words: \nAmbulatory surgical procedures;\xa0Health service demand;\xa0Satisfaction degree
