Monitoring brain function gives real-time information about the depth of anaesthesia of a patient. This study examined the effect of preoperative anxiety on the depth of anaesthesia and IVF success. Methods: One hundred thirty-one patients who had undergone oocyte retrieval were divided into two groups according to the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI): the low-anxious Group L (n = 71) and high-anxious Group H (n = 60). Hemodynamic stability, intraoperative total propofol and fentanyl consumption, good quality embryo (GQE) rate, and fertilization rate were recorded. Results: Fertilization and GQE rates were not significant between groups L and H. Total propofol consumption was significantly higher in group H than in group L. Heart rate (HR) preoperatively and postoperatively and systolic arterial pressure (SAP) preoperatively and diastolic arterial pressure (DAP) postoperatively were significantly increased in group H than in group L. The time for the modified Aldrete score to reach 9 (MAS 9) in group H was significantly higher than that in group L. The effect of variables that were found significantly in the univariate analysis (Propofol, HRpreop, HRpostop, SAPpreop, DAPpostop, and MAS 9) on BAI score. Conclusion: Total propofol consumption was higher in patients with high anxiety levels, but it did not have a negative effect on IVF success.en10.4274/TJAR.2023.22829info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAnxietyDepth Of AnaesthesiaMonitoring Of Brain FunctionOocyte RetrievalSedationOocyte RetrievalPropofol AnesthesiaGeneral-AnesthesiaFollicular-FluidAnalgesiaElectroacupunctureRemifentanilAlfentanilMidazolamStressEffect of Preoperative Anxiety on Depth of Anaesthesia and In Vitro Fertilization SuccessArticle515414419N/AWOS:0011676079000082-s2.0-8517516790937876168Q3
