Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Spielberg State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) score	Preoperative 1st hour and Postoperative 4th hour	The test scores between 20 and 80, with higher scores indicating more generalized and stronger anxiety. Preoperative and postoperative STAI I score questions will be asked.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Numerical Rating Scale (NRS)	Postoperative 4th, 12th and 24th hours	11-point numerical rating scale for pain (0='no pain' and 10='worst pain possible pain') were explained.
The quality of postoperative functional recovery (QoR-15) score	Preoperative 1st hour and Postoperative 24th hour	The patient-reported Turkish QoR-15 score includes 15 questions that evaluate the patient's postoperative recovery. The QoR-15 score is grouped under two groups, A and B. A high QoR-15 score, a score between 0 (poor) and 10 (excellent) for each item, and a total score of 150 indicate better quality of recovery.
Patient satisfaction score	Postoperative 24th hour	Patients were asked about their satisfaction levels with a number between 0-10.
MCID of STAI score	24 hour	Calculation of the MCID of the STAI score
MCID of QoR-15 score	24 hour	Calculation of the MCID of the QoR-15 score
