Effects of Procedure Started in the Morning and Afternoon on Early Postoperative Sleep Function and Postoperative Recovery in Patients Under General Anesthesia
Effects of Procedure Started in the Morning and Afternoon on Early Postoperative Sleep Function and Postoperative Recovery in Patients Under General Anesthesia
The present study was conducted in laparoscopic hysteromyoma patients, aiming to compare the
 effects of morning surgery with afternoon surgery on early postoperative sleep function and
 postoperative recovery under general anesthesia.
The circadian rhythm is an intrinsic timing mechanism generated by endogenous systems to
 adapt to the external environment, which is closely related to the human sleep-wake cycle.
 Patients after major surgery are prone to changes in sleep structure and sleep quality,
 called postoperative sleep disturbances (POSD), which are characterized by the total sleep
 time reduced, rapid eye movement sleep absent, slow wave sleep shortened, and shallow sleep
 phase increased, times of wakefulness increased, and highly fragmented sleep. Some studies
 have shown that POSD can aggravate postoperative pain and fatigue, increase postoperative
 delirium, cardiovascular adverse events, and even cause accidental death of patients. The
 investigators don't know whether the early postoperative sleep function and postoperative
 recovery quality of patients undergoing general anesthesia are affected by surgery in the
 morning or in the afternoon. The present study was conducted in laparoscopic hysteromyoma
 patients, aiming to compare the effects of morning surgery with afternoon surgery on early
 postoperative sleep function and postoperative recovery under general anesthesia.
