ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is focused on making sure a questionnaire that helps measure how well patients recover after surgery is useful for Greek-speaking patients. The study will translate the original questionnaire into Greek and check if it works well, is easy to understand, and can be used comfortably by patients after their surgeries. The aim is to ensure that this tool accurately reflects patients' recovery experiences so that healthcare providers can better support them.

To be eligible for this study, participants should be over 18 years old and scheduled for elective (planned) general surgery where they will be put under general anesthesia. Unfortunately, people who are having emergency surgeries, have trouble understanding Greek, or have certain medical conditions that may affect their ability to participate won’t be included. If you join the study, you will help researchers understand how to better evaluate recovery in Greek-speaking patients, which could improve care in the future.
