Quality of Recovery in the Post-anesthesia Care Unit

This prospective observational study aims to identify the minimal clinically important difference of the QoR-PACU2 questionnaire. In addition, this study aims to assess the correlation between self-reported quality of postoperative recovery early after surgery in the post-anesthesia care unit and postoperative recovery on the first day after surgery.
