ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying how a woman’s immune and nutritional health before surgery might affect how well she sleeps after having a total abdominal hysterectomy—a surgery to remove the uterus. Researchers will look at simple blood test results taken before surgery to calculate immune-nutritional scores and then see if these scores relate to how patients sleep after the operation. They will also check pain levels and how satisfied patients feel with their recovery. The goal is to understand if these pre-surgery health markers can help predict recovery experiences like sleep quality and comfort, which could lead to more personalized care during and after surgery.

Women between 18 and 70 years old who are having an elective (planned) total abdominal hysterectomy under general anesthesia may be eligible to join. To participate, patients need to have routine blood tests done before surgery, plan to stay at least one night in the hospital afterward, and be able to understand and complete simple questionnaires about their sleep and recovery. Women with certain health conditions like sleep disorders, mental illness, or those taking sleep medications won’t be eligible. If you join, you can expect to have your blood test results reviewed before surgery, then be asked about your sleep and pain after surgery using easy questionnaires. This study is not yet recruiting participants.
