The Quality of Recovery-40 questionnaire (QoR-40) is a self-rated used to assess the postoperative recovery quality and health status patients in early stages following surgery; however, there no Turkish version QoR-40. aim this study was reliability, validity, responsiveness QoR-40 (QoR-40 T). After approval ethics committee, total 137 completed during preoperative period, on third day, one month after surgery. life evaluated by using health-related (Short-Form Health Survey-36; SF-36) day...

Increased intra-abdominal pressure during laparoscopic surgery, anesthesia, patient position, and neuroendocrine response may increase the risk of arrhythmia. This study aimed to investigate perioperative changes in frontal QRS-T angle patients undergoing cholecystectomy under general anesthesia. Therefore, electrophysiological parameters at different stages were studied using arrhythmia susceptibility was investigated. prospective observational included 48 aged 23 65 years with an American...

The optimal position for surgery is one in which the patient provided best possible surgical intervention and put at minimum risk. Different positions may cause changes tissue perfusion. This study investigates relationship between perfusion index. A sample of 61 healthy individuals with no peripheral circulatory disorders, chronic diseases, or anemia was included this study. Participants held six different positions: supine, prone, 45-degree sitting-supine, supine legs lifted, Trendelenburg...

Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is common after anaesthesia in elderly patients. However, it may appear patients of all ages. The main pathogenesis remains unclear, although there some evidence that brain inflammation alter abilities. In the present study, we aim to evaluate short-term and long-term effects dexamethasone on induced by sevoflurane adult rats.Seven-month-old 30 male Wistar albino rats were randomised into three groups: group (exposure sevoflurane), + injection),...

Blocking the femoral nerve reduces postoperative pain and analgesic consumption in patients who have undergone total knee hip replacement surgery. A limited number of studies compared efficacy fascia iliaca compartment block techniques. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate effectiveness (FIB) using ultrasound.A 100 were included study. Patients divided into two randomized equal groups (Group I had underwent block, N.=50; Group II N.=50). Visual Analogue Scale levels (VAS) 30th min 1st,...

A transversus abdominis plane block is a peripheral method that has been used successfully for pain relief after total abdominal hysterectomy. However, the effects of combination and general anesthesia on analgesic anesthetic requirements remain unclear. This randomized placebo-controlled study aimed to evaluate consumption during hysterectomy under anesthesia.Sixty-six women undergoing were into two groups receive alone (control group) or with using 20mL 0.25% bupivacaine (transversus...

Abstract Background The interscalene brachial plexus block ( ISBB ) is an effective procedure for minimizing postoperative opioid consumption and pain following arthroscopic shoulder surgery. ultrasound US )‐guided supraclavicular SCBB seems to be alternative technique However, evidence lacking regarding the impact of on management recovery after aim this study was compare effects with in terms quality Methods A total 62 adult patients scheduled surgery under general anesthesia were...

<h3>Objectives:</h3> To evaluate the possible value of perfusion index (PI) as a tool for pain assessment. <h3>Methods:</h3> This prospective, observational study was performed with 89 patients underwent surgery general anesthesia. The visual analog scale (VAS)&gt;3 were grouped M1, and VAS≤3 morphine M2. After VAS&gt;3 given 2mg morphine. Patients increments intravenous (2 mg) at 20 minute intervals until VAS&lt;3. correlation difference between PI VAS score values evaluated before after...

Formaldehyde (FA) is one of the most widely used chemical compounds in industrial field. It described as toxic, particularly to nervous system, urogenital and respiratory tracts. In this study, we determined effects acute oral exposure FA rabbit brain tissue. A total 16 rabbits were selected divided into 2 groups: formaldehyde group (group F) control C). was administered F at a rate 40 mg/kg/day via nasogastric tube for 5 days. Saline similarly eight controls. All animals euthanized after...

Bilateral superficial cervical plexus block (BSCPB) is a common method used for analgesia in thyroid surgery. We investigated the analgesic efficacy of bilateral intraoperative and postoperative periods. Patients (n = 46) undergoing thyroidectomy were randomly separated into following 2 groups: general anesthesia group (GA; n 23) plus BSCPB (GS; 23). The requirement (remifentanil) visual analog scale (VAS) score at multiple time points during period (after extubation, 15 , 30 minutes 1, 2,...

This study aimed to analyze the histopathological and biochemical effects of dexmedetomidine on rat uteri exposed experimental ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Objective: This study is conducted to specify the effects of birth preperation training on depression risk pregnant women and their prenatal attachment levels.Method: semi-experimental designed single group pretest-posttest was with 44 attending preparatory class a public hospital. In data collection process study, Pregnancy Presentation Form, Prenatal Attachment Inventory (PBI), Beck Depression (BDI) were used . The collected through interview method by researchers.Results mean for age...

Despite increasing knowledge about pain, postoperative pain management is still a challenge. Opioids are widely used drugs in the treatment, but side effects of opioids lead to investigations novel strategies. We aimed compare preemptive intravenous lornoxicam and paracetamol on scores, opioid consumption, patient satisfaction during laparoscopic cholecystectomy recovery.

Patients’ postoperative treatment might be affected by their psychological state. The study aimed to evaluate the effects of anxiety, coping ability (stress tolerance), depression, and pain catastrophizing on analgesic consumption in patients scheduled for sleeve gastrectomy. This prospective observational consisted 72 patients. Distress Tolerance Scale (DTS), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), Depression (BDI), Pain Catastrophizing (PCS) were completed preoperative period. In period, intensity,...
