Abstract：
UNASSIGNED: To uncover variables linked to breast cancer patient satisfaction in order to improve policy choices and actions for breast cancer care in Ghana.
UNASSIGNED: We employed a cross-sectional design using a quantitative approach.
UNASSIGNED: The Radiotherapy, Oncology and Surgery Departments of the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital, Accra.
UNASSIGNED: Inpatient and outpatient breast cancer patients.
UNASSIGNED: The level of inpatient and outpatient satisfaction was measured using descriptive and inferential statistical analyses. The Shapiro-Wilk test was employed to assess normality, while the Heckman selection model assessed significance with outcomes of interest.
UNASSIGNED: A total of 636 participants, with a mean age of 52.64±14.07 years, were recruited. The measured inpatient and outpatient levels of satisfaction out of 100 were 74.06±7.41 and 49.99±1.00 respectively, while the self-reported satisfaction levels out of 5 were 4.22±0.63 and 4.11±0.85 respectively. The level of inpatient satisfaction was significantly influenced by age, marital status, income level, and number of previous facilities visited (p<0.05). Outpatient satisfaction level was significantly associated with place of residence and income level (p<0.05).
UNASSIGNED: The study offers insight into the satisfaction levels of breast cancer patients receiving inpatient and outpatient services at the largest tertiary referral centre and teaching hospital in Ghana, as well as the factors influencing attendance and satisfaction levels. Understanding and improving breast cancer patients\' levels of satisfaction is a way that providers can safeguard their emotional well-being. Improvement in patient satisfaction at our institution among outpatients is an area for future growth.

摘要：
■揭示与乳腺癌患者满意度相关的变量，以改善加纳乳腺癌护理的政策选择和行动。
■我们采用了定量方法的横截面设计。
■放射治疗，科勒布教学医院肿瘤科和外科，阿克拉.
■住院和门诊乳腺癌患者。
■使用描述性和推断性统计分析来衡量住院和门诊满意度。Shapiro-Wilk检验用于评估正常性，而Heckman选择模型评估了感兴趣的结果的显著性。
■共有636名参与者，平均年龄52.64±14.07岁，被招募。在100人中，住院和门诊的满意度分别为74.06±7.41和49.99±1.00，而自我报告的满意度分别为4.22±0.63和4.11±0.85。住院患者满意度水平受年龄影响显著,婚姻状况,收入水平,以及以前访问过的设施数量(p<0.05)。门诊满意度与居住地和收入水平显著相关(p<0.05)。
该研究提供了在加纳最大的三级转诊中心和教学医院接受住院和门诊服务的乳腺癌患者的满意度。以及影响出勤率和满意度的因素。了解和提高乳腺癌患者的满意度水平是提供者保护他们情绪健康的一种方式。在门诊患者中提高我们机构的患者满意度是未来增长的领域。
