Inpatients' Experiences and Associated Factors at a Tertiary Hospital in Vietnam: A Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Health science reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background and Aims: In the current global context, as society continues to evolve, the increasing demand for healthcare services poses significant challenges to the quality of care. Patient experience is regarded as a crucial factor that not only enhances individual satisfaction but also directly impacts the performance of the healthcare system. Prioritizing patient experience is key to the success and sustainability of an organization, helping to establish and maintain a competitive advantage. This study is to evaluate the proportion of patients with a positive experience and the factors associated with patient experience during inpatient treatment. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted on 347 inpatients at the University Medical Center, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, from March to May 2024. Data were collected through direct interviews with participants using the Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) questionnaire to evaluate patient experience. Results: Among the 347 patients participating in the study, aged between 35 and 55 years, 83.6% reported having a positive experience, while 16.4% reported a negative experience during their inpatient treatment. Factors such as nursing, doctor, hospital environment, timely hygiene, and medication information were highly rated, with the overall experience ranging from 88.9% to 99.7%. Educational level, emergency admission, and length of hospital stay were statistically significant factors associated with patients' experiences. Conclusions: Our study emphasizes the critical importance of healthcare quality and patient satisfaction by evaluating their experiences during treatment. The attentiveness of healthcare staff and the hospital environment are also significant factors that contribute to enhancing the patient experience. This highlights the need for continuous improvement in the measures implemented to maintain and elevate the quality of healthcare services.
