Evaluation de la satisfaction des soins offerts aux patients souffrant de douleurs chroniques au centre d'antalgie du CHUV
Chronic pain is defined as pain that persists beyond 3 months. The burden on the healthcare system is consequential: chronic pain is a significant cause of disability, not only physically but also psychologically and socially. Nineteen percent of the European population suffers from chronic pain and 40% of them are dissatisfied with their treatment. In the Pain Center of the CHUV, we propose several interventional pain management therapies depending on the indication such as epidural injections, peripheral nerve block or intravenous lidocaine or ketamine infusion. Pain is a difficult outcome to measure due to its multifaceted (sensory /emotional /cognitive /social) and subjective nature.
Patient satisfaction is an important and commonly used indicator for measuring the quality of health care. The need to explore patient satisfaction is high because of the increasing demand for scientifically valid demonstrations of treatment efficacy and patient satisfaction in chronic pain care. This will allow us to improve the patient care.
The aims of the project are to:
1. Evaluate the satisfaction of care offered at the Pain Center of the CHUV from chronic pain patients.
2. Characterize the type of patients attending the ambulatory consultation of the Pain Centre.
3. Evaluate the effects of the different interventional pain management therapies on pain and other factors affecting the quality of life of the patients of the Pain Center.
