Overview
Sleep quality is a key physiological factor influencing immune function, inflammatory response, and pain perception. This prospective observational study aims to evaluate whether preoperative sleep quality predicts postoperative inflammation, pain severity, and analgesic consumption in patients undergoing elective breast cancer surgery.
Preoperative sleep quality will be assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Systemic inflammatory response will be evaluated using the Systemic Immune-Inflammation Index (SII), calculated from routine hematological parameters. Postoperative pain will be assessed using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), and analgesic consumption will be recorded within the first 24 hours.
The study aims to determine whether poor sleep quality is associated with increased inflammatory response, higher pain scores, and greater analgesic requirement.
Description
Sleep plays a crucial role in regulating immune responses, inflammatory pathways, and pain modulation. Sleep disturbances have been associated with increased pro-inflammatory cytokine activity and altered pain perception.
Surgical procedures represent a significant physiological stressor that triggers inflammatory responses and postoperative pain. Identifying modifiable preoperative factors that influence these outcomes is of clinical importance.
This prospective observational study will be conducted in patients undergoing elective breast cancer surgery. Preoperative sleep quality will be assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Inflammatory response will be evaluated using the Systemic Immune-Inflammation Index (SII), calculated from neutrophil, lymphocyte, and platelet counts.
Postoperative pain intensity will be assessed using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), and total analgesic consumption within the first 24 hours will be recorded.
The study aims to determine whether preoperative sleep quality is an independent predictor of postoperative inflammatory response, pain severity, and analgesic requirement.
