Quality of Postoperative Recovery (QoR-15T) in Patients Undergoing Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS)

Summary

Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) is a minimally invasive technique that provides faster recovery after thoracic surgery. Techniques such as thoracic paravertebral block, Erector Spina Plane Expansion (ESP block) are accepted as loco-regional techniques for VATS. The quality of recovery after anesthesia (QoR) is an important information of the early health components of patients after surgery. QoR-15 offers a valid, reliable, sensitive and easy-to-use method for recovery after surgery. We aimed to investigate the relationship between QoR-15 score and postoperative pain temperature after Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS) ESP block and paravertebral spread.
