ABSTRACT
Medical doctors are required to provide information to their patients regarding their medical procedures according to the law on patient information enacted on March 4, 2002. The objective of this study was to assess patients' awareness and satisfaction with respect to their perception of information obtained prior to or during a medical examination. A self-descriptive patient survey was conducted at the Groupe Hospitalier of Pitié-Salpêtrière in 2005 for this purpose. Data were collected at three distinct moments using a standard questionnaire. 147 patients were interviewed (101 had received and MRI and 46 a bronchoscopy). Twenty percent of the participants reported that they had not been provided with any specific medical or paramedical information before the examination and 4% had received no information at all. Health professionals must ensure that information is given to their patients in a manner that takes into account their expectations and responds to their concerns before a medical procedure is performed in order to improve its delivery and its intrinsic quality.
