Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adult female patients aged 18 to 45, classified as ASA physical status I or II, scheduled for IVF-related oocyte retrieval.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with ASA physical status III or IV, or those with significant comorbidities or psychiatric conditions, may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This observational study evaluates how elevated serum estrogen levels affect postoperative recovery in women undergoing IVF procedures under general anesthesia. It will include 100 adult female patients aged 18 to 45, assessing recovery quality through the QoR-15 questionnaire and secondary outcomes like pain, nausea, and discharge time. Patients will be categorized based on their estradiol levels, with a focus on those exceeding 350 pg/ml. The study aims to enhance understanding of estrogen's role in recovery dynamics post-anesthesia.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved postoperative recovery protocols for IVF patients, enhancing their overall experience and outcomes.
How similar studies have gone: While the specific relationship between estrogen levels and postoperative recovery in IVF patients is less explored, related studies have indicated that hormonal levels can influence recovery outcomes.
