Official title: What Matters to You When You Prepare for Surgery and How Does Surgical Preparedness Influence Postoperative Outcome - a Flashmob Study
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
Read more
The study has the following aims:
- 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.
- To examine how the patient's preparation is associated with the quality of their postoperative recovery at home.
- 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).

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Correlation between preoperative preparedness and degree of worry
The correlation between patients' selfreported preparedness (0 = Not at all prepared, 10 = Very prepared) and the Degree of Worry (0-10 numeric scale, 0 = not all worried and 10 = very worried).

- Exercised
- Avoided infections
- Arranged for assistance/support from family or friends
- Planned leave with employer.

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
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:
- 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.
- To examine how the patient's preparation is associated with the quality of their postoperative recovery at home.
- 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).

Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Nov 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 3 sites in Denmark. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Correlation between preoperative preparedness and degree of worry (time frame: From enrollment on the day of surgery to postoperative day 3). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Nov 2025; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
