Correlation Between Degree of Preoperative Anxiety and Postoperative Pain in Patients Under Elective Surgery by Lucía Alvarez Bastidas* in Developments in Anaesthetics & Pain Management_ Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences Review and Research
Abstract
Introduction:
Preoperative anxiety frequently encountered in patients before surgery,
contributes and/or predisposes to different undesirable effects in the
postoperative period of these patients, highlighting postoperative pain
although a close relationship has not been established yet. There are a large number
of validated scales that help to assess the degree of anxiety and pain that each
patient will experience during their surgical procedure
Objective:
To determine the degree of correlation between preoperative anxiety and the
level of postoperative pain in patients under elective surgery.
Material
and methods: Correlation study carried out in HGR No.1 IMSS Obregón, Sonora
from January 2016 to May 2106, in patients electively programmed for orthopedic
and orthopedic surgery. Measuring level of anxiety with Amsterdam scale and
postoperative pain with visual analogue scale.
Results:
There is a positive relationship between the perceived pain of patients with
respect to the preoperative anxiety suffered
Conclusion:
Preoperative anxiety is directly linked to the postoperative pain of the patient
undergoing elective traumatology surgery.
