“…This study found that the EVAN-GC scale has similar validity to the French and Spanish versions [ 8 , 13 ]. Construct validity was acknowledged by correlating the postoperative EVAN-GC scale with each patient’s global rating of postoperative satisfaction.…”

“…In addition, the translated questionnaire’s test-retest reliability (0.63–0.85) was satisfying and stable, exceeding published recommendations (correlation 0.60) [ 28 ]. Compared with missing data of the original EVAN-G scale in each dimension (0.6–2.7%) and 1.7% of that in the Spanish version [ 8 , 13 ], this study reported no missing data after detailed instruction, which was due to the convenience and portability of social application—confronted with a lower average duration of completing the EVAN-GC scale (approximately 4 min) than those of the initial questionnaire (approximately 9 min) and Spanish version (approximately 14 min), which showed excellent acceptability.…”

“…The EVAN-G scale has been widely used in different studies due to its strong psychometric characteristics and reliability in general anesthesia patients [ 9 – 11 ]. In addition, Barnett’s systematic review of patient satisfaction measures noted a scarcity of well-developed satisfaction questionnaires and highlighted the robustness of the EVAN-G scale, which has been validated in French and Spanish [ 12 , 13 ].…”

Background This study aimed to translate the French version of a perioperative satisfaction questionnaire (EVAN-G) scale, a validated questionnaire for assessing perioperative patient satisfaction, into a Chinese version and validate it in Chinese-speaking patients. Methods We developed the Chinese version of the EVAN-G (EVAN-GC) scale based on the original French version of the EVAN-G. The EVAN-GC scale, the Short version of the Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (S-STAI), and the McGill pain questionnaire (MGPQ) were administered on the WeChat mini program. We invited patients to complete these questionnaires within 4 to 24 h after surgery. The psychometric validation of the EVAN-GC scale included validity, reliability, and acceptability. Results Among 220 patients, 217 (98.6%) completed the EVAN-GC scale after surgery. The item-internal consistency revealed good construct validity. Compared with the total scores of the S-STAI and MGPQ, the EVAN-GC scale showed excellent convergent validity (ρ = − 0.32, P < 0.001; ρ = − 0.29, P < 0.001). The EVAN-GC scale could differentiate between groups, which showed good discriminate validity. The Cronbach’s alpha coefficient (0.85) of the translated scale demonstrated satisfactory internal consistency reliability, and a 36-patient subsample retest evidenced good test-retest reliability (ρ = 0.82, P < 0.001). In addition, the median [interquartile range] time of completing the EVAN-GC scale was 3.7 [2.9–4.9] min. Conclusions The EVAN-GC scale has good psychometric properties similar to those of the original French version. The EVAN-GC scale is a valid and reliable measurement to assess patient satisfaction in Chinese-speaking patients. Trial registration The Chinese Clinical Trial Registry, ChiCTR2100049555.
