Trial summary

Although patients with cancers are prone to insomnia, especially waiting for surgery during hospitalization, and insomnia promotes acute respiratory infections (ARI) and is not conducive to the postoperative quality of recovery (QoR), evidence that preoperative insomnia delays postoperative recovery is still lacking.

About this study

Official title: Association Between Preoperative Insomnia and Postoperative Quality of Recovery in Non-elderly Patients Undergoing Non-emergency Cancer Resection Surgery: A Prospective Observational Study

Although patients with cancers are prone to insomnia, especially waiting for surgery during hospitalization, and insomnia promotes acute respiratory infections (ARI) and is not conducive to the postoperative quality of recovery (QoR), evidence that preoperative insomnia delays postoperative recovery is still lacking. In this prospective observational study, we enroll 175 non-elderly subjects with abdominal cancer who will undergo non-emergency cancer resection surgery. Insomnia Severity Index scale (ISI) is used to assess the insomnia severity during hospitalization while awaiting surgery. The Quality of Recovery-15 (QoR-15) is used to evaluate the overall recovery after surgery. Meanwhile, wrist watch and sleep diary are used to record sleep. The aim of the study is to investigate the association between preoperative insomnia and postoperative QoR, the association between preoperative insomnia and postoperative ARI,and to describe preoperative sleep traits.

Read the detailed description

In the single-center, prospective observational study, ISI is used to investigate the perceptive sleep during hospitalization waiting for surgery,and QoR-15 is used to investigate the overall quality of functional recovery at postoperative 1, 3, 7, 14, and 30 days (POD1/3/7/14/30). At the same time, both of ARI within POD30 and neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio(NLR) in peripheral blood perioperation are recorded. The study is divided into four phases: (1) Screening: on the first day of admission, the subjects are screened according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and the basic data are collected, including ISI, QoR-15 and depression/anxiety questionnaires, et al. (2) Enrollment (sleep survey during hospitalization waiting for surgery) : ISI is performed in the day of surgery to perceive the severity of insomnia during the whole period of hospitalization waiting for surgery, and objective and subjective sleep are investigated by wrist watch and sleep diary. (3) Surgical and anesthesia period: the key medical data related to surgery, anesthesia and nursing occurred during the operation are recorded. (4) Follow-up: QoR-15 is investigated POD1/3/7/14/30. Meanwhile, both of ARI and NLR are investigated.

The planned enrollment is 175 subjects. No randomized or any protocol-driven treatment is administered to the subjects during the study. The effect size f2 of the independent variable (ISI scores of hospitalization waiting for surgery) on the dependent variable (QoR-15 on POD1) is expected to be 0.1. The number of covariates is predicted to be 46, α is set as two-sided 0.05, and the power is 0.9. The sample size calculated by PASS software is 157 cases. Considering 10% dropout, a sample size of 175 will be required. Data will be presented as mean±standard deviation, median and number (%). Logistic multivariate, or multivariable models will be both performed by statisticians.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Total scores of the questionnaire of Insomnia Severity Scale (ISI) on the day before surgery or the day of surgery

    ISI is used to assess insomnia during the time when waiting for surgery in hospital from the day of admission to the day of surgery.

    ISI is used to assess how satisfied with sleep patterns and psychological distress or impairments in daytime functioning associated with sleep difficulties.

    ISI is filled in by subjects on the day before surgery or the day of surgery. ISI contents 7 items, which item is measured by an 0-4 point rating scale (0="very satisfaction"; 4="very dissatisfaction").

    ISI total scores range from 0 to 28, with higher scores indicating higher severity of insomnia.

    Measured: on the day before surgery or the day of surgery

  2. Total scores of the questionnaire of 15-item Quality of Recovery scale (QoR-15)on postoperative day 1

    QoR-15 is a patient-reported measure, and is used to assess global recovery quality after surgery physiologically and psychologically.

    QoR-15 is filled on postoperative day 1. QoR-15 contents 15 items, which item is constructed by an 11-point numerical rating scale (for positive items, 0= "none of the time" to 10="all of the time"; for negative items the scoring was reversed). The total scores are ranging from 0(extremely poor QoR) to 150 (excellent QoR).

    Measured: on postoperative day 1

Secondary outcomes (12)
  1. Sleep-onset latency(min)(resulting from CSD): Distribution frequency of different degrees of sleep latency during the time when waiting for surgery in hospital from the day of admission to the day of surgery

    A Consensus Sleep Diary (CSD) is used to asses subjective sleep quantity everyday when waiting for surgery in hospital from the day of admission to the day of surgery.

    The CSD items assess sleep-onset latency (time taken to fall asleep), the number of awakenings, and the total duration of sleep. Subjects also allow to record factors that could influence sleep, including use of sleep medication.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
