Understanding Terminologies
Questionnaires
Questionnaires refer to structured sets of questions designed to collect important and relevant medical and personal information from patients before a procedure. These forms may include questions about a patient's medical history, current health status, treatment goals, and any specific concerns or preferences. Questionnaires help providers assess patient suitability for certain treatments, ensure patient safety, and maintain proper documentation for legal and medical purposes.
