Clinical Trial Summary

The study will be designed to investigate the impact of the preoperative anxiety level on postoperative opioid requirement during the PACU stay, in order to improve postoperative pain treatment in the long term after ENT surgery. The present study can contribute to improve postoperative pain management in patients in the field of ENT surgery, as new influencing parameters and risk factors may be discovered.


Clinical Trial Description

Background Due to the frequency of surgeries, acute postsurgical pain (APSP) is a common clinical problem. In this study, the investigators will investigate pre-surgical psychological factors associated with the experience of APSP in ENT surgery. The study will be designed to investigate the impact of gender-specific preoperative anxiety states, using the STOA, APAIS, PCS and VAS-A scoring systems, on postoperative opioid consumption after elective ENT surgery. These findings may have important implications for developing more personalized strategies in acute postoperative pain therapy in selected patients. Aim Study aim is to investigate the impact of the preoperative anxiety level, using the validated STOA questionnaire, on postoperative opioid requirement during the PACU stay, in order to improve postoperative pain treatment in the long term after ENT surgery. The present study can contribute to improve postoperative pain management in patients in the field of ENT surgery, as new influencing parameters and risk factors may be discovered. The investigators hypothesize that a higher preoperative anxiety state, is a predictive factor of opioid requirement in the early postoperative period after ENT surgery. Methods Surgery-related psychological factors like anxiety state will be assessed gender-specific, in patients scheduled for elective ENT surgery by validated questionnaires (STOA, APAIS, PCS and VAS-A), filled out by the patient the day before surgery and on the day of surgery, to investigate the correlation with the postoperative opioid consumption. ;
