October 27, 2017 updated by: Graham Chapman, University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center
This study evaluates patient goal achievement and satisfaction in benign hysterectomy. Patient's will state their goals prior to undergoing benign hysterectomy, and will receive a follow-up questionnaire 3 months post-operatively evaluating their perception of goal achievement and overall satisfaction.
