Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
The patients were divided into two groups by using the 4-item Jenkins Sleep Questionnaire(JSQ) due to degree of sleep disturbance . The 4 items were asked to the
patients: how frequent they had trouble falling asleep, woke up several times per night, had trouble staying asleep, feeling tired and worn out after the usual amount of sleep during the previous 4 weeks. There were six alternative responses: not at all (1), 1 to 3 days (2), 4 to 7 days (3), 8 to 14 days (4), 15 to 21 days (5) and 22 to 28 days (6). The patients having sleep problems occurring 4 or more times in previous 4 weeks were classified as insomnia group according to sleep disturbances. None of the patients were premedicated. The BIS sensor was applied to patients’ forehead and connected to digital signal converter before the induction of anesthesia. In all groups anesthesia was standardized and induced with propofol 2 mg/kg intravenously, muscle relaxation with rocuronium 0.5mg/kg intravenously. The fentanyl was given to all patients intravenously as a bolus 1 mcg/kg single dose intravenously before induction of anesthesia. Anesthesia was maintained with sevoflurane in a mixture of nitrous oxide 2L/min and oxygen 2L/min, during of procedure and all patients were mechanically ventilated to maintain an ETCO2 concentration of 30-37 mmHg. The BIS target range was maintained between 40-60 via administration of sevoflurane. No further fentanyl was given during operation. Inspiratory and end-tidal concentrations of sevoflurane and ETCO2 were measured. Heart rate, non-invasive arterial blood pressure, arterial oxygen saturation were also measured and recorded during the surgery. All measurements were recorded at 5- min intervals.
Pain was assessed in all participants preoperatively and postoperatively. Before the surgery; all participants who were asked about their pain experience lasting for 1 day or more in the past month. They also described their pain on a two-sided blank body manikin (front and back) and categorized into widespread pain, some pain or no pain. Widespread pain is described as pain presented in the both sides of the body, above and below the waist and in the axial skeleton. In cases which all criterias of widespread pain could not be satisfied, it was grouped as some pain. Postoperative abdominal pain was assessed by the patients themselves using numeric rating scale (NRS 0 = no pain, 10= worst possible pain), from 0 to 10 at 2, 4, 8, 12, 18 hours postoperatively. All assessment was done at rest. All patients in both groups were informed about how to use patient controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) self-control pump which was administered as soon as possible after the surgery ended. Each PCIA pump contained 300 mg tramadol dilution to 100 ml of 0.9 % saline solution and all of them were adjusted as 10 mg /h background dose and bolus dose of 10 mg, a locked out interval of 15 minutes.

Comparator / control treatment
The 4 item Jenkins Sleep Questionnaire(JSQ) were asked to the
patients: how frequent they had trouble falling asleep, woke up several times per night, had trouble staying asleep, feeling tired and worn out after the usual amount of sleep during the previous 4 weeks. There were six alternative responses: not at all (1), 1 to 3 days (2), 4 to 7 days (3), 8 to 14 days (4), 15 to 21 days (5) and 22 to 28 days (6). Patients who responded “not at all” to all the items were classified as not having sleep problems and classified as control group.

Summary
Brief summary
There are several findings about gama-aminobutyric acid (GABA) which is the
primary inhibitory neurotransmitter in central nervous system and strongly related with the
etiology of chronic insomnia due to abnormal GABA content. GABA is also one of the
targets for general anesthetics. We planned to investigate whether the insomnia has any effect on anesthetic requirement.
