Quality of Recovery Scores in Parturients With Obesity

NCT04988893 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 140

Last updated 2023-04-03

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The prevalence of obesity has increased dramatically recently. Obesity is a pro-inflammatory state which leads to chronic low grade inflammation having different systemic effects. This may make obesity an independent risk factor for severe acute postoperative pain. No prospective studies have been conducted to specifically evaluate the quality of recovery after caesarean delivery for women with morbid obesity when compared to non-obese parturients. In addition, while there is biological plausibility to infer worse pain scores in parturients with obesity, the magnitude of this difference is unknown and information guiding adjustments in pain management are lacking.
