Perioperative Patient Satisfaction as a Predictor of Hemodynamic Stability and Post-Operative Pain among Surgical Patients in a Tertiary Government Hospital in Bacoor, Cavite

This study investigated the predictive capacity of perioperative nursing satisfaction on clinical outcomes (hemodynamic stability and post-operative pain) among patients undergoing elective cesarean sections. Utilizing a quantitative predictive-correlational design with 50 respondents, the study assessed satisfaction across four domains: identity and safety, information, dignity, and comfort. Results indicated that maternal patients were overall "satisfied" with their care, with "physical dignity" ranking highest. Regression analysis revealed that satisfaction in identity and safety, information, and emotional comfort are significant predictors of stabilized post-operative heart rates, blood pressure, and lower pain intensity scores. These findings highlight that structured, interpersonal nursing care functions as a vital, non-pharmacological clinical intervention that mitigates the autonomic stress response.
