Abstrakt: Background: Comprehensive health care includes the evaluation of satisfaction in patient care and the quality of medical services. High-precision instruments have been used to assess the quality of recovery after anesthesia (QoR), such as the QoR-15 questionnaire, a validated and accurate assessment tool that considers aspects of emotionality, physical and psychological well-being, pain, and autonomy.
Objective: To assess QoR in postoperative patients who underwent anesthesia.
Material and Methods: Observational, descriptive, cross-sectional study, carried out from March to August 2022. 80 patients from 18 to 70 years who underwent an anesthetic procedure and to which the anesthetic quality QoR-15 questionnaire was administered 24 hours after surgery were included. Descriptive statistics were performed according to the Shapiro-Wilk test. For quantitative variables it was used Mann-Whitney U, and for qualitative variables chi-squared; it was considered significant a value of p < 0.05.
Results: The 80 patients obtained a QoR-15 score of 122.06 (52-147), and their QoR was considered good. Anesthetic recovery quality in patients undergoing regional anesthetic techniques was excellent in 42.5% and 10% had balanced general anesthesia, p = 0.011.
Conclusions: QoR was higher with regional anesthetic techniques. Quality assessment through validated tools allows objective evaluation and monitoring of the care process in medical services.
