Summary

There are suggestions from experimental pain studies that pain perception in patients with severe obesity differs compared with individuals with lower BMI values, with a tendency for patients with severe obesity to be hypoalgesic - that is, to have reduced numerical pain scores to a variety of painful stimuli. That finding could be related to: associated reduced cognitive function (complex attention, verbal and visual memory, and decision making) in severe obesity.

The purpose of this study is to determine differences between females' pain levels whether they are obese or non-obese, during different menstrual phases (premenstrual, postmenstrual and menopausal phases) through propofol injection pain given for induction of GA

Conditions

  • Injection Site Coldness
  • Propofol Adverse Reaction

Interventions

DRUG

Non obese

After standard anesthesia monitoring, Administration of oxygen was performed for 3 minutes with 10 L/min fresh gas flow of 100% oxygen. After oxygen administration, 25% of (2 mg/kg) total propofol dose was injected over 3-5 seconds (Propofol Lipuro 1%, B. Braun Melsungen AG, Germany). The patients were observed and asked immediately whether they had pain in the arm, its VAS score, type of pain (burning, parathesia or other) and its onset was documented (to differentiate early or late type of pain).
