About
This study will examine preoperative concerns in older adults through the use of a self-administered questionnaire. The development of this questionnaire will involve adapting survey questions from previously validated studies, creating new questions, and generating a comprehensive questionnaire.
Full description
The primary objective is to assess the preoperative concerns in older adults. This objective will be assessed by using a self-administered questionnaire.
The secondary objective is to examine older adults' attitudes toward preoperative cognitive assessments, functional assessments, and prehabilitation programs. Similarly, this objective will be assessed by using a self-administered questionnaire.
Survey administration will be completed online and in person. Recruited participants will receive an email that contains an external link to the online version of the survey that will be administered on Research Electronic Data Capture (REDCap), an online platform to complete secure surveys. Once received, participants will be able to anonymously complete the survey and not have to provide any identification information except for general sociodemographic variables. Alternatively, study personnel will administer the questionnaire online/ in person at the preoperative clinic to assess surgical population at Mount Sinai Hospital.
