| The Iowa Satisfaction with Anesthesia Scale is copyrighted, franklin Dexter and the University of Iowa Research Foundation. Permission to use the questionnaire may be obtained at https://www.franklindexter.net. The 11 statements that make up the Iowa Satisfaction with Anesthesia Scale alternate between “negative” and “positive” statements. Responses to statements are given an individual score ranging from -3 to +3, the scores for the “negative” statements are multiplied by -1, and the cumulative scores are averaged to determine a final composite score. A final score of +3 represents the most satisfied a patient can be with their anesthesia experience, while a final score of -3 represents the least satisfied a patient can be with their anesthesia experience.13 | |
