The Impact of Educational Status on the Postoperative Perception of XXXX .

@entity1 @entity308 @entity1337 @entity148 @entity158 @entity282
BACKGROUND: Postoperative (PO) @entity158 interferes with the recovery and mobilization of the surgical @entity1 . The impact of the educational status has not been studied adequately up to now. METHODS: This prospective study involved 400 consecutive general surgery @entity1 . Various factors known to be associated with the perception of @entity158 including the educational status were recorded as was the preoperative and @entity282 and the @entity1337 requirements for the 1(st) PO week. Based on the educational status, we classified the @entity1 in 3 groups and we compared these groups for the main outcomes: i.e. PO @entity158 and PO @entity1337 . RESULTS: There were 145 @entity1 of lower education (junior school), 150 @entity1 of high education (high school) and 101 of higher education (university). @entity1 of lower education were found to experience more @entity158 than @entity1 of higher education in all postoperative days (from the 2(nd) to the 6(th)). No difference was identified in the type and quantity of the @entity1337 used. The subgroup analysis showed that @entity1 with @entity308 and young @entity1 (< 40 years) had the maximum effect. CONCLUSIONS: The educational status may be a significant predictor of @entity282 due to various reasons, including the poor understanding of the preoperative information, the level of @entity148 and @entity308 caused by that and the suboptimal request and use of @entity1337 . Younger @entity1 (< 40), and @entity1 with subclinical @entity308 are mostly affected while there is no impact on @entity1 over 60 years old.
