摘要

Background

The emotional and psychological complexities experienced by patients who will undergo plastic surgery are profound. This study aims to explore the origins of preoperative emotional challenges and their associated risk factors among these individuals.

Methods

Utilizing a cross-sectional study design, we administered questionnaires to patients prior to their procedures. The survey assessed their preoperative concerns and demographic factors that may influence their concerns. Multivariant logistic regression analysis was used to identify risk factors associated with patients’ concerns regarding plastic surgery.

Results

A total of 122 patients were enrolled and analyzed. Over 90% of patients expressed preoperative concerns about the upcoming surgery, with 16.4% reporting insomnia the night before their procedures. The primary concerns were unsatisfactory outcomes, intraoperative, and postoperative pain. No statistically significant risk factors were identified for general concerns about plastic surgery. Individuals with history of plastic surgery and higher education level were more prone to have concern about unsatisfactory outcomes. Insomnia over the past month, lower household incomes, and prior surgical history were associated with an increased likelihood of experiencing preoperative insomnia.

Conclusion

This study highlights the significant prevalence of preoperative concerns among plastic surgery patients and offers insights into the risk factors influencing patient concerns. The findings underscore the importance of targeted preoperative patient education and comprehensive pain and insomnia management strategies in addressing patients’ concerns and optimizing surgical outcomes.
