About this trial
This study aims to compare the effects of combined intravenous-inhalational anesthesia versus inhalational anesthesia alone on postoperative recovery in patients undergoing elective gynecologic surgery.
A total of 100 patients, aged 18-65 years and classified as ASA I-III, scheduled for elective gynecologic procedures at Sakarya University Faculty of Medicine Training and Research Hospital, will be included. The sample size was calculated based on the primary outcome, the Quality of Recovery-15 (QoR-15) score.
Patients will complete the QoR-15 questionnaire preoperatively, before knowing which anesthesia method will be applied. Postoperative QoR-15 scores will be collected on postoperative days 1 and 2, and intraoperative data will be obtained from anesthesia records.
The study evaluates postoperative recovery using QoR-15 scores, covering physical comfort, emotional state, psychological support, pain, and ability to perform daily activities. Higher scores indicate better recovery, whereas lower scores indicate impaired postoperative recovery.
