About

Objective: The Pain Sensitivity Questionnaire (PSQ) is a clinically valuable tool that has been shown to correlate with various experimental pain sensitivity assessments in healthy individuals and patients with chronic pain. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effectiveness of the PSQ in predicting postoperative pain in patients undergoing breast-conserving surgery.

Full description

Objective: The Pain Sensitivity Questionnaire (PSQ) is a clinically valuable tool that has been shown to correlate with various experimental pain sensitivity assessments in healthy individuals and patients with chronic pain. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effectiveness of the PSQ in predicting postoperative pain in patients undergoing breast-conserving surgery.

Materials and Methods: This study included 74 patients over the age of 18 with American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) scores of I, II, or III, who were scheduled to undergo breast-conserving surgery. Ethical approval from the local ethics committee and written informed consent from each patient were obtained. Patient data, including age, ASA score, and comorbidities, were collected, and contact details were recorded for postoperative follow-up.

The PSQ was administered to all patients during the preoperative period to assess their pain sensitivity. Anesthesia induction and maintenance followed a standardized protocol on the day of surgery. The intraoperative analgesic consumption and the duration of the surgery were documented. Postoperative assessments were conducted 24 hours after the surgery in the general surgery ward, where analgesic use and short pain inventory scores were recorded. Patients were followed up one month postoperatively, and their pain levels were assessed using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS).
