This study aims to develop a new evaluation tool to assess patient acceptability of percutaneous interventions. A Delphi methodology will be implemented, involving the recruitment of a panel of experts in percutaneous interventions and pain management. The scale will be developed through several iterative phases until a final version is reached, comprising clearly defined domains, subdomains, items, and questions to be answered by patients in order to obtain an overall acceptability score for the percutaneous technique received. The scale is intended to be applicable across a wide range of percutaneous interventions and, consequently, to a broad patient population undergoing different percutaneous treatments depending on their clinical condition.
