Summary

Patient satisfaction is considered a subjective indicator of the quality of care provided during a hospital course. Identifying the factors that affect patient satisfaction across remains essential. Recognizing the growing importance of this metric in assessing medical performance, this study aimed to evaluate the satisfaction and associated factors among inpatients of the thoracic surgery unit of a tertiary care government hospital in Nepal.

Detailed description

A cross-sectional analysis of satisfaction levels was conducted among 122 patients consecutively admitted to the Thoracic Surgery unit. Data were collected by interview using a questionnaire of 23 domains scored on a 4-point Likert scale, adapted from the Health Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) survey. Descriptive and inferential statistics (independent t-test and Chi-square test) were used for data analysis.
