Summary

This study aims to develop and validate a simple score that measures a patient's ability to walk just before and after outpatient surgery. Researchers will ask adult patients undergoing day surgery with sedation to answer questions about their walking. The goal is to create a reliable tool that helps medical teams assess recovery and safety in the immediate post-surgery period.
