Quality of Recovery-15 questionnaire, Ukrainian versionDiagnostic test
Also called QoR-15Ukr
A 15-item questionnaire covering different aspects of recovery after surgery.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Adult patients undergoing surgery | Adult patients native or fluent in Ukrainian and undergoing elective or emergency surgery under general and/or regional anesthesia Receives: Diagnostic Test: Quality of Recovery-15 questionnaire, Ukrainian version |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Construct validity of QoR-15Ukr
Correlation between the QoR-15 (0-150) and the following variables:
- type of surgery (minor/major), duration of surgery
- type of anaesthesia
- numerical rating scale (0 to 10) for severity of postoperative pain
- post-operative ICU stay
- postoperative opioid consumption.
Measured: Preoperative and 24 hour postoperative
Convergent validity of QoR-15Ukr
Correlation between the QoR-15 (0-150) and the following variables:
- numerical rating scale (0-10) for overall quality of postoperative recovery,
Measured: Preoperative and 24 hour postoperative
Responsiveness of QOR-15Ukr
Cohen's d effect size.
Measured: Preoperative and 24 hour postoperative.
Secondary outcomes (2)
Reliability of QOR-15Ukr
Compare the two QoR-15 results measured at 60 minutes intervals using an intraclass correlation coefficient (test-retest reliability), and calculate the Cronbach alpha to investigate the internal consistency.
Measured: Preoperative and 24 hour postoperative
Feasibility of QoR-15Ukr
Time needed to fill in the questionnaire and the rate of completion will be evaluated.
Measured: Preoperative and 24 hour postoperative
