    Overall satisfaction with anesthesia care was reported at 97.6%, but dissatisfied patients had significantly lower overall hospital satisfaction.

    Satisfaction correlated positively with staff approach and pain management, while negatively correlating with postoperative pain scores.

    Multivariable analysis identified better post-anesthesia care unit approach and regular pain assessment as independent predictors of satisfaction.
