Immune-Nutritional Scores and Sleep Quality After Total Abdominal Hysterectomy

A Clinical Evaluation of the Relationship Between Preoperative Immune-Nutritional Scores and Postoperative Sleep Quality in Women Undergoing Total Abdominal Hysterectomy

This prospective observational study aims to evaluate the relationship between preoperative immune-nutritional status and postoperative sleep quality in women undergoing total abdominal hysterectomy under general anesthesia. Immune-nutritional scores, including the Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI) and Hemoglobin-Albumin-Lymphocyte-Platelet (HALP) score, will be calculated using routine preoperative blood parameters. Postoperative sleep quality will be assessed using the Richards-Campbell Sleep Questionnaire (RCSQ). Secondary outcomes include postoperative pain scores and patient satisfaction. The study will enroll 60 patients and seeks to determine whether preoperative physiological markers can predict subjective recovery parameters such as sleep and comfort, potentially contributing to personalized perioperative care.
