Abstract
This study was carried out in El-Minia University hospital in
the period from January to September 2011 on forty five adult
females ASA I and II undergo elective surgery using general
anesthesia
Preoperative anxiety was assessed with the Spielberger’s
state- trait anxiety inventory (STAI). The test inventory included
2 forms The First form was (State Form) which related to the
immediate situation, the state anxiety. The second form was the
(Trait Form) which measured the background anger. The patient
was asked to complete the 2 STAI form (state & trait) on the
night before surgery during the last preoperative visit. The
patient was asked to complete the state but not the trait form once
more in the operative field just before the induction of anesthesia.
Once the patient had completed the STAI- state just
before the surgery, we measured the blood pressure noninvasively
for three consecutive times each was five minutes
apart from the other. We had recorded the average of the three
reading as the basal blood pressure. Mean while three lead
electrocardiogram was monitored and heart rate recorded every
minute during blood pressure measurement with the average
heart rate was analyzed as the basal heart rate. In addition we
recorded the basal temperature.
