Preoperative risk factors and their cumulative impact on nonsatisfaction after benign hysterectomy: A population‐based nation‐wide register study

Key Points

This research aims to identify preoperative risk factors influencing dissatisfaction after benign hysterectomy.
Analyzed patient data from a nationwide register
Assessed preoperative factors including smoking and employment status
Evaluated overall satisfaction after one year post-surgery
9% of women reported nonsatisfaction after one year
Key predictors included smoking and lack of gainful employment
Nonbleeding symptoms were associated with higher dissatisfaction

Abstract

Nearly, 9% of the women were nonsatisfied with the outcome of the hysterectomy after 1 year. Lack of satisfaction appeared predictable from preoperative factors, notably smoking, not being gainfully employed, and nonbleeding symptoms leading to hysterectomy. These findings emphasize the need for individualized counseling before surgery. Given that most preoperative risk factors are resistant to immediate modification, more research is needed to develop targeted interventions that can reduce nonsatisfaction and enhance patient outcomes.
