Object:
Evaluation of the impact of patients' participation on postoperative recovery and satisfaction who underwent the Percutaneous Endoscopic Interlaminar Discectomy(PEID).
Methods:
We collected data from sixty-nine patients who underwent PEID surgery at Chuzhou Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital between January 2020 and December 2022. All patients had L5/S1 lumbar disc herniation and met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The patients were divided into two groups: non-communication group (n = 33) and communication group (n = 36). The division was made based on whether the patients had preoperative surgical video viewing and intraoperative communication. We compared the baseline data, surgical time, VAS score, lumbar JOA score, surgical complications, and patient satisfaction between the two groups.
Result:
The communication group showed better pain control and functional recovery in the early postoperative period. The communication group had better VAS scores on the first day and month after surgery, as well as JOA scores on the first week and month after surgery, with statistically significant differences (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in hospital stay, VAS score, JOA score, and postoperative complications between the two groups of patients at 3 and 6 months after surgery. The communication group had higher patient satisfaction (P < 0.05).
Conclusion:
Preoperative surgical video viewing and intraoperative communication by PEID patients can alleviate pain, accelerate functional recovery, improve symptoms, and increase patients' satisfaction. We need to do more work to develop this new model.
