<p>A cross-sectional study to assess the difference in perception of day surgery information between patients and medical staff in China</p>

Abstract

In China, day surgery is an emerging practice with both patients and medical practitioners still lacking experience, so high-quality perioperative teaching is necessary and important. Our study examining patients and staffs' views on day surgery information should be considered when developing perioperative teaching programs. To increase patient satisfaction of the day surgery experience, delivery of patient-specific information tailored to individual circumstances is necessary.
