Summary

On the occasion of the international What Matters To You-day 2025 the goal of this Danish, multicenter flashmob study with follow up is to investigate what matters to adult patients when they prepare for surgery or colonoscopy.

Aim

The study has the following aims:

1. To explore and describe what matters to patients when preparing for surgery and to explore how patients prepare before surgery and assess their perceived level of readiness.
2. To examine how the patient's preparation is associated with the quality of their postoperative recovery at home.
3. To examine the associations between Degree of Worry (DOW)/postoperative quality of recovery (QoR-15), and preoperative preparedness/postoperative quality of recovery (QoR-15).

On the day of surgery, patients will be invited to fill out an online questionnaire. At the same time they will be invited to participate in the follow-up on postoperative day 3 (survey link via text message).
