A total of 409 adult patients using an autonomous wheelchair at a large academic medical center who volunteered to complete a paper survey were included. The survey was administered immediately after autonomous wheelchair use, using a cross-sectional, anonymous survey, between 15 Oct 2025 and 14 Jan 2026. Of 409 completed surveys, six were excluded because participants did not identify their endpoint for stratification purposes. Descriptive analysis included frequencies and percentages of responses.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>No collisions or adverse events were observed during the pilot, and the system operated reliably within the predefined routes. Most survey respondents were first-time users (335\/402 [83.3%]). A majority reported they would use the autonomous wheelchair again (341\/395 [86.3%]) and would recommend it to others (364\/397 [91.7%]). Overall, the experience was rated better than expected by 293 of 393 participants (74.6%). When given a choice, 271 of 379 respondents (71.5%) preferred the autonomous wheelchair over a staff-operated wheelchair.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>These findings suggest that autonomous wheelchairs are feasible and acceptable to patients in a controlled outpatient setting and support continued piloting and prospective evaluation.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/21501319261463381","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,4]],"date-time":"2026-07-04T11:11:41Z","timestamp":1783163501000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Patient Perspectives on an Autonomous Wheelchair Transport Pilot in a Tertiary Medical Center: A Cross-Sectional Survey"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"17","author":[{"given":"Stephanie Decker","family":"Hurt","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Mayo Clinic"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jithinraj","family":"Edakkanambeth Varayil","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Mayo Clinic"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jon E.","family":"Bowman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Mayo Clinic"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Karen M.","family":"Fischer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Mayo Clinic"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8591-5936","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Darrell R.","family":"Schroeder","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Mayo Clinic"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3464-3525","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ivana T.","family":"Croghan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Mayo Clinic"},{"name":"Mayo Clinic"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_8_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jamahealthforum.2025.5029"},{"key":"e_1_3_8_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMc2310288"},{"key":"e_1_3_8_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/jamia\/ocac197"},{"key":"e_1_3_8_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/bjs\/znac119"},{"key":"e_1_3_8_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMra2302038"},{"key":"e_1_3_8_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ncp.70062"},{"key":"e_1_3_8_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/21501319251332215"},{"key":"e_1_3_8_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s40001-025-02603-6"},{"key":"e_1_3_8_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/jhm.70262"},{"key":"e_1_3_8_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s12891-024-07417-x"},{"key":"e_1_3_8_12_2","first-page":"20","article-title":"Patient satisfaction with participation, adverse events and hospitalizations in phase II\/III NCCTG clinical trials: was it worth it?
