The aim of this study is to test the Korean version of QoR-15 for its validity and clinical acceptability and feasibility.
Quality of recovery (QoR) after anesthesia is an important measure of the early postoperative health status of patients. The QoR-40 is a widely-used questionnaire for postoperative patients and the short-form version of it (QoR-15) was developed in 2013. The validation of QoR-15 has been reported in the version of English, Portuguese, Danish, Chinese and Swedish. However, the study to validate the Korean version of QoR-15 has not been demonstrated.
Patients undergoing surgery and general anesthesia are asked by the investigators to complete the QoR-15 questionnaire and Korean 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) a day before surgery. They are then asked to repeat the QoR-15 questionnaire 24 h postoperatively and also rate their overall postoperative pain score using 11-point numeric rating scale (NRS).

| QoR-15 | Other | The QoR-15 is the questionnaire to provide an evaluation of the postoperative quality of recovery. Patients undergoing surgery and general anesthesia are asked by the investigators to complete the QoR-15 questionnaire before and 24h after the surgery. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Convergent Validity of the QoR (Quality of Recovery)-15 | The QoR-15 (0-150) is compared with the global QoR visual analog scale (VAS) (0-100), 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) and interitem correlations are measured. | 24 hours after the surgery |
| Construct Validity of the QoR (Quality of Recovery)-15 | To investigate if there is an correlation between the QoR-15 (0-150) and age (yr), gender (male/female), American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status (I-IV), type of surgery (minor/major), postoperative complication (Clavien Dindo grade II or high, %) and 11-point numeric rating scale (NRS) pain score. | 24 hours after the surgery |
| Discriminant Validity of the QoR (Quality of Recovery)-15 | To investigate if there is differences in the QoR-15 (0-150) and postoperative complications (Clavien Dindo grade II or high, %) between the high QoR score group and low QoR score group | 24 hours after the surgery |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Reliability of the QoR (Quality of Recovery)-15 | Compare the two QoR-15 results measured at 60 minutes intervals using an intraclass correlation coefficient, and calculate the Cronbach alpha to investigate the internal consistency. | 24 hours after the surgery |
| Response success rate of the QoR-15 |
