Abstract
- Aim: With the outbreak of COVID‐19 and associated challenges such as increased workload for health providers and shortage of equipment, it became more challenging to maintain patients' dignity and satisfaction. This study evaluated the patients' dignity and satisfaction with COVID‐19 in Kashan, Iran, in 2021. Design: A cross‐sectional descriptive study. Methods: In total, 385 patients recovered from COVID‐19 were selected through sequential sampling method. Data were collected using demographic, patient dignity inventory, and patient satisfaction questionnaires. Data were analysed using descriptive analysis, independent t‐test, ANOVA, and Spearman‐Brown coefficient. Results: The mean age of patients was 50.57. The mean scores of patients' dignity and satisfaction were 1.622 ± 0.653 and 3.851 ± 0.548 (out of 5), respectively. The dignity rating was associated with age, gender, education, underlying disease, and length of hospital stay (p < 0.05); but patient satisfaction was only associated with education (p = 0.002). The results indicated that dignity and satisfaction have a significant direct correlation (r = −0.23, p < 0.001). Patient or Public Contribution: This study was designed based on the research priorities and needs in the field of clinical research and patients were involved in conducting the study via participating in data collection.
