Warum funktioniert eine Versorgungsinnovation wie die Hausarztzentrierte Versorgung (HZV) nach § 73b SGB V, eine neue Versorgungswelt jenseits der KV-Regelversorgung, ausgerechnet in Baden-Württemberg? Es ist nicht so, dass es Hausarztprogramme oder -modelle nicht auch anderswo in deutschen Landen gibt, aber erstens nicht so lang – aktuell immerhin 15 Jahre – und zweitens nicht derart konstant und obendrein ständig weiterentwickelt. Wichtig sei, so Johannes Bauernfeind, der Vorstandsvorsitzende der AOK Baden-Württemberg, dass die HZV nicht nur wirtschaftlicher ist als die sogenannte Regelversorgung, sondern mehr als 90 Prozent der freiwillig eingeschriebenen Patienten:innen „sehr zufrieden sind mit diesem Versorgungsangebot, wie wir es gestaltet haben“.

Background: Up to now, no prospective cohort study using a validated questionnaire has assessed patients' expectation and perception of divided anesthesia care and its influence on patient satisfaction. Objective: We assessed patient satisfaction with divided anesthesia care in a district general hospital in Switzerland. We hypothesized that patient expectations, combined with their perceptions of the (un)importance of continuous anesthesia care would influence patient satisfaction. Material and methods: A total of 484 eligible in-patients receiving anesthesia from October 2019 to February 2020 were included and received preoperative information about divided care via a brochure and face-to-face. The primary outcome was the assessment of patient satisfaction with divided anesthesia care using a validated questionnaire. In group 1 continuity of care was considered important but not performed. In group 2 continuity was ensured. In group 3 continuity was regarded as not important and was not performed. In group 4 patients could not remember or did not answer. A psychometrically developed validated questionnaire was sent to patients at home after discharge. Results: A total of 484 completed questionnaires (response rate 81%) were analyzed. In group 1 (n = 110) the mean total dissatisfaction score was 25% (95% confidence interval [CI] 21.8–28.1), in group 2 (n = 61) 6.8% (95% CI 4.8–8.7), in group 3 (n = 223) 12.1% (95% CI 10.7–13.4), and in group 4 (n = 90) 15% (95% CI 11–18); ANOVA: p < 0.001, η = 0.43. Of the patients 286 (59%) considered continuity of care by the same anesthetist relatively unimportant (34%) or not important at all (25%). The other 40% considered it important (22%) or very important (18%). Conclusion: Despite receiving comprehensive preoperative information about divided anesthesia care, 40% of patients still considered continuity of care by the same anesthetist important. We recommend further research evaluating whether and how patient expectations can be modified towards the common practice of divided care and patient satisfaction can be increased.

Background: The evaluation of German postanesthesia questionnaires is often restricted to inpatient medical care. The anesthesiological questionnaire for patients (ANP) has previously been validated only after medical care of inpatients. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to evaluate the validity of the ANP in the context of outpatient surgery and anesthesia.Methods: Data from 4547 patients (mean age 18-89 years, sex: m/f, 55%/45%), scheduled for ambulatory orthopedic and trauma surgery, were analyzed. All patients received a standard induction of anesthesia with propofol, sufentanil and 4 mg dexamethasone. Maintenance of anesthesia was achieved with a balanced technique comprising volatile anesthesia (either sevoflurane or desflurane) and sufentanil. In addition, patients undergoing operations on the anterior cruciate ligament received a femoral nerve block with 12-15 ml 0.5% ropivacaine. Of the patients 13% remained in hospital overnight as a result of complex operations (combined anterior and posterior cruciate ligament repair, hip arthroscopy and 10% of those undergoing shoulder operations). Before discharge from the recovery room, patients were asked to answer questions with respect to postoperative symptoms 1h after anesthesia (ESNA 19 items), at the time of interview (ABZ 17 items) and about overall patient satisfaction (10 items). These results were matched with the type of procedure and time data from the patient administration system. All data were analyzed descriptively using parametrical tests.Results: At both time points, pain in the area of the operation was the predominant symptom (ESNA: 77,1%; ABZ: 74,3%). Pain after shoulder arthroscopy was more severe compared to knee arthroscopy, both with and without repair of the anterior cruciate ligament. Most of the adverse symptoms decreased significantly (p ≤ 0.001) with time, demonstrating progressive recovery of the patient. Patient discomfort was more likely to occur in female than in male patients, and female patients were more likely to be dissatisfied with the progress of recovery. The risk of experiencing adverse symptoms after anesthesia was higher for female than for male patients; this was most apparent for feeling cold (odds ratio, OR 4.08) and nausea and vomiting (OR 3.45). Younger patients (18-40 years) were more likely to express discomfort than both groups of older patients (41-60 years and 61-89 years). Accordingly, younger patients had lower satisfaction levels with respect to both anesthesia and overall perioperative care, and the progress of recovery. Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) were linked to younger age, female sex, and longer procedure times (>40 min).Conclusion: The individual analyses delivered plausible results, which support the validity of the ANP. The ANP may also be used for assessment of postoperative discomfort and patient satisfaction in the setting of outpatient surgery. In view of the short time interval between the two measurement points, the ANP for outpatients could in future be reduced to a single postoperative questionnaire. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: Music is one of the most commonly used non-pharmacological interventions to reduce anxiety. It helps patients overcome emotional and physical alienation, provides comfort and familiarity in an improved environment and offers a pleasant distraction from pain and anxiety. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of listening to preoperative favorite music on postoperative anxiety and pain.Material and Methods: This prospective, randomized, single-blinded, controlled trial included the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) I-III patients, aged 18-70 years, undergoing elective inguinal hernia surgery. Demographic data and anxiety status were recorded. Anxiety status was measured using the Spielberger state-trait anxiety inventory form 1 (STAI-1) and state-trait anxiety inventory form 2 (STAI-2). After recording baseline heart rate, blood pressure and STAI levels, patients were randomly allocated to the music group (Group M) or control group (Group C). Patients in Group M listened to their favorite music using headphones and patients in the control group received standard care. The STAI‑1 was repeated after surgery and the numeric rating scale (NRS) and patient satisfaction were measured.Results: A total of 117 patients were included. Demographic data, educational status, and previous surgical history were similar between the groups. Mean preoperative STAI‑1 and STAI‑2 scores were similar between the groups (p > 0.05). Mean postoperative STAI‑1 score was significantly lower in Group M than in Group C (39 [range 35-43] vs. 41 [range 37-43], p < 0.05). Moreover, the change in the STAI score was significantly higher in Group M compared with Group C (p < 0.05). The difference of hemodynamic measurements pre-music to post-music was significant between Group M and Group C (p = 0.001). The NRS scores remained similar between the groups. Patient satisfaction score was significantly higher in Group M (p = 0.017).Conclusion: Listening to patient-preferred favorite music preoperatively reduced anxiety, regulated hemodynamic parameters, and improved postoperative patient satisfaction. Reduced anxiety was not associated with reduced pain. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Correlation of patient satisfaction with nurses' time spent at the bedside: A prospective observational study Abstract. Background: Patient satisfaction is of high importance in quality assurance in many hospitals. The existing shortage of nursing staff and the resulting additional workload for individual nurses reduce the time available for patient care. Aim: The aim of this study is to explore a possible relationship of patient satisfaction with the time spent by nurses at the bedside and the influence of other influencing predictors. Methods: In this observational study, nursing attendance time was collected using attendance records which were verified by digital call light logs, and then evaluated using a linear regression model including patient satisfaction. Results: The nursing attendance time showed no significant influence on "patient satisfaction" (p = 0.155). The most important variables influencing "patient satisfaction" were: "no previous hospital experience" (p = 0.001), "importance of care" (p < 0.001) and "Gender" (form male) (p = 0.001). Conclusions: The time spent by nurses at the patient's bedside is not considered decisive enough to have a clear positive influence on patient satisfaction. Adaptations in nursing care are recommended, which enable a holistic relationship building and goal-oriented nursing care that favours patient satisfaction.
