Abstract presentation given at a national surgical society about the influence of surgical bleeding on patient satisfaction and willingness to recommend the hospital.
Therapeutic misconception
• Inaccurate website marketing
• Orthopedics1
• TAVI2
• Robotic cardiac surgery3
• Suboptimal informed consent4

Does bleeding and transfusion after
r-CABG increase the risk of unmet
expectations and dissatisfaction?
Methods
Robotic CABG –
hemostat group
(n=62)
Robotic CABG –
control group
(n=131)
Hemostatic into port
sites routinely
Hemostatic into
port sites as needed
Primary OUTCOMES:
• 30 day clinical outcomes
• Patient satisfaction
• HCAHPS score: Items #5-7; 22
• Unmet expectations:
• Size of the incision
• Speed of recovery
