Study population: The study population consists of orthopedic surgeons who specialize in shoulder arthroscopy and are actively engaged in performing these procedures. Participants will be recruited from a variety of clinical settings, including academic medical centers, private practices, and specialized orthopedic clinics. The surgeons included in the study will have diverse levels of experience, ranging from early-career surgeons with low practice to highly experienced surgeons with decades of experience in the field.

Who may be able to join

  • Orthopedic Surgeons:Must be a licensed orthopedic surgeon actively performing shoulder arthroscopy procedures.
  • Participants must be willing to provide informed consent and participate in both the questionnaire development (including interviews) and the validation phases of the study.
  • Participants must be proficient in the language in which the questionnaire is administered to ensure accurate and meaningful responses.

About this study

This observational study aims to develop and validate the "Surgeon Satisfaction Self-Assessment Questionnaire for Shoulder Arthroscopy." The study involves conducting in-depth interviews with surgeons who perform shoulder arthroscopy to identify key factors influencing their surgical satisfaction, including individual, patient-related, and surgical equipment-related factors. Based on the insights gained from these interviews, a comprehensive questionnaire will be developed. The questionnaire will then undergo validation processes, including assessments of content, construct, criterion, and reliability, to ensure it accurately and consistently measures surgeon satisfaction. The final validated tool is intended to provide a reliable method for surgeons to self-assess their satisfaction with shoulder arthroscopy procedures, contributing to improved surgical practices and outcomes.

Read the detailed description

The "Surgeon Satisfaction Self-Assessment Questionnaire for Shoulder Arthroscopy" is being developed to address the need for a standardized tool to evaluate surgeon satisfaction in the context of shoulder arthroscopy. This study is structured into two primary phases: survey development and validation.

Phase 1: Survey Development In the initial phase, semi-structured interviews will be conducted with a diverse group of surgeons who specialize in shoulder arthroscopy. These interviews will explore various dimensions of surgical satisfaction, including technical factors, patient outcomes, surgical equipment performance, and team dynamics. The qualitative data obtained from these interviews will be analyzed to identify recurring themes and factors that are crucial to surgeon satisfaction. Based on these findings, a draft questionnaire will be developed, ensuring that it comprehensively covers all relevant aspects of the surgical experience.

Phase 2: Validation Process Once the questionnaire is drafted, it will undergo a rigorous validation process. Content validity will be established by consulting with a panel of experts in orthopedic surgery and psychometrics to ensure that the questionnaire items are both relevant and exhaustive. Construct validity will be tested using factor analysis to determine the underlying structure of the questionnaire and to ensure it accurately measures the intended constructs of satisfaction. Criterion validity will be assessed by comparing the questionnaire outcomes with established benchmarks or other validated tools. Additionally, the questionnaire's reliability will be evaluated through test-retest and internal consistency measures Cronbach's alpha.
