Summary

Major surgery can lead to postoperative disturbances in sleep patterns with subjective deterioration of sleep quality according to patients' reports as well as objective alterations of sleep architecture, as recorded by polysomnography Factors implicated in postoperative sleep disturbances include but are not limited to the severity of the surgical procedure, the neuroendocrine response to surgery, inadequate treatment of postoperative pain and external factors interfering with sleep, such as light, noise and therapeutic procedures There are no adequate data from current literature as to whether regional anesthesia is superior to general anesthesia regarding postoperative sleep quality in patients subjected to either mode of anesthesia. So, the aim of this study will be to assess the effect of two different anesthetic techniques (general versus regional) in patients subjected to similar operations Patients will be assessed with the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Questionnaire (PSQI), regarding preoperative and long term postoperative sleep quality and sleep diaries regarding early postoperative sleep quality
