NCT ID NCT05014347
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aims to create a questionnaire that measures how patients feel about their experience during endoscopic ultrasound, a procedure used to examine the pancreas and bile ducts. Researchers will ask 171 outpatients at a hospital in Italy to rate their experience, and compare their answers with those of nurses and doctors. The goal is to develop a tool that helps healthcare providers improve the quality of care from the patient's perspective.
