ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effects of preoperative anxiety on the recovery of anesthesia and postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing elective laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy.Methods A total of 87 patients were enrolled who were undergoing elective laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy during July 2015 to June 2016.State-Trait Anxiety Inventory-1 was administered to the patientspatients with anxiety were included in the high-anxiety group (Group H) and patients witouth anxiety were included in the low-anxiety group (Group L) We observed the recovery of anesthesia and postoperative analgesia of the patients in two groups.Results In group H,the extubation time,the time for the Aldrete score to reach 9,were significantly longer;more agitation were found;and more fentanyl and parecoxib were needed.The difference was statistically significant (P＜0.05).The age,BMI,operation time,anesthesia time of the patients in the two groups had no statistically significant differences (P＞0.05).Conclusion High anxiety has a negative effect on recovery from anesthesia and on postoperative pain control in patients undergoing elective laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy.
