Official title
Effects of Combined Intravenous-Inhalational Anesthesia Versus Inhalational Anesthesia on Postoperative Recovery in Gynecological Operations: A Comparison Based on QoR-15 Scores
Overview
This study aims to compare the effects of combined intravenous-inhalational anesthesia versus inhalational anesthesia alone on postoperative recovery in patients undergoing elective gynecologic surgery. A total of 100 patients, aged 18-65 years and classified as ASA I-III, scheduled for elective gynecologic procedures at Sakarya University Faculty of Medicine Training and Research Hospital, will be included. The sample size was calculated based on the primary outcome, the Quality of Recovery-15 (QoR-15) score. Patients will complete the QoR-15 questionnaire preoperatively, before knowing which anesthesia method will be applied. Postoperative QoR-15 scores will be collected on postoperative days 1 and 2, and intraoperative data will be obtained from anesthesia records. The study evaluates postoperative recovery using QoR-15 scores, covering physical comfort, emotional state, psychological support, pain, and ability to perform daily activities. Higher scores indicate better recovery, whereas lower scores indicate impaired postoperative recovery.
Interventions
- Drug Combined Intravenous-Inhalational Anesthesia
Patients will receive a combination of intravenous anesthetic agents and inhalational anesthetic gases during elective gynecologic surgery. The specific anesthetic drugs and doses will follow routine clinical practice. Postoperative recovery will be assessed using the Quality of Recovery-15 (QoR-15) questionnaire on postoperative days 1 and 2. - Drug Inhalational Anesthesia Only
Patients will receive only inhalational anesthetic gases during elective gynecologic surgery, following routine clinical practice. Postoperative recovery will be assessed using the QoR-15 questionnaire on postoperative days 1 and 2.
Primary outcome measures
- Postoperative recovery using QoR-15 [Time frame: Postoperative Day 1 and Postoperative Day 2]
Secondary outcome measures (3)
- Postoperative pain score [Time frame: Postoperative hours 6, 12, and 24]
- Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) incidence [Time frame: Postoperative hours 0-24]
- Length of stay in post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) [Time frame: Postoperative period (PACU stay), assessed up to 10 days]
