description Aim:The preoperative anxiety levels of the patients create negative effects in the postoperative period. In this study, we aimed to reveal the relationship between postoperative analgesia needs and preoperative anxiety levels in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.Methods:This study was organized as a cross-sectional study. The Preoperative Trait And State Anxiety Scales (STAI-T and STAI-S) were applied to 66 patients undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy between October 2020 and October 2021, and they were divided into two groups of high and low anxiety according to their STAI-S scores. Postoperative anxiety level was considered 0th hour when the patient was able to respond to verbal stimuli and was re-evaluated with the STAI-S scale within the first 4 h. Postoperative pain scores of the patients were recorded with the visual analogue scale at 2nd, 6th, 12th, and 24th hours. Patients who needed additional analgesia doses were recorded.Results:Sociodemographic characteristics were compared between groups, and no significant difference was found. Although the pain of our patients decreased over time, there was no significant relationship between anxiety levels and postoperative pain scores of the groups.Conclusion:This study showed that there was no relationship between the preoperative anxiety level and the postoperative analgesia score of the patients.
