The Correlation of Pain Catastrophizing Scale and Sedation in Patients Undergoing Gastroscopy
Journal Title: Bagcilar Medical Bulletin - Year 2021, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
Objective: Catastrafization is defined as considering the worst possible consequence of events and danger and increasing the likelihood of this. In this study, the Catastropization scale applied to patients to compare pain catastrophization before the esophagogastroduedonoscopy procedure and the pain at the vascular access of patients and the amount of sedation applied were compared. Method: Patients planned for esophagogastroduodenoscopy were informed about the pain catastrophizing scale before the procedure and asked to answer the form. The pain of the patient during vascular access was recorded according to the numerical pain rating scale. Sedation was applied to all patients during the esophagogastroduedonoscopy procedure. Sedation relationship applied to the patient was evaluated by both pain assessment methods. Results: A positive correlation was observed between the intensity of pain during vascular access (DyNRS) and the amount of sedation applied during endoscopy, and between Pain Catastrophizing scale and DyNRS. Conclusion: In this study, it was concluded that there was a relationship between the intensity of vascular pain and sedation consumption, and the amount of sedation consumption will increase as the level of pain increases.
