Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults aged 18–65 with ASA I–III undergoing elective gynecologic surgery at Sakarya University who can provide informed consent and complete the QoR-15 are eligible.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with severe comorbidities beyond ASA III, advanced neurological/cognitive impairment, emergency surgeries, or known allergies to the anesthetic drugs used are unlikely to benefit or be eligible.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
One hundred adults (ages 18–65) classified ASA I–III undergoing elective gynecologic procedures at Sakarya University Training and Research Hospital will receive either combined intravenous-inhalational anesthesia or inhalational anesthesia alone. Patients will complete the QoR-15 questionnaire before surgery and again on postoperative days 1 and 2, while intraoperative data will be collected from anesthesia records. The primary outcome is the QoR-15 recovery score, which covers physical comfort, pain, emotional state, psychological support, and ability to perform daily activities. The trial compares postoperative recovery quality between the two anesthesia approaches.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the combined anesthesia approach could improve immediate postoperative comfort and faster return to daily activities after gynecologic surgery.
How similar studies have gone: Prior comparisons of combined intravenous-inhalational versus inhalational anesthesia have shown mixed results, with some studies reporting modest improvements in recovery metrics but no consistent superiority.
