Overview
Brief Summary
This prospective observational study aimed to evaluate the relationship between menstrual phase cycles and spinal needle-puncture pain during spinal anesthesia in female patients of reproductive age.
Detailed Description
Before the spinal anesthesia procedure, the anxiety and depression levels of the patients will be evaluated with the 14-scale 'hospital anxiety and depression scale.' The spinal anesthesia procedure will be performed by the anesthesiologist responsible for the patient. At the end of the spinal anesthesia procedure, a researcher with no knowledge of the patient's menstrual phase information will ask rate the spinal needle-puncture pain felt during spinal anesthesia with a numerical rating scale (NRS), which is graded from 1 to 10 (0: no pain, 10: very severe pain).
