Association Between Anxiety and Depressive Symptoms During Prehospitalization Waiting Period and Quality of Recovery at Postoperative Day 3 in Perioperative Cancer Patients.
PURPOSE
Perioperative depressive symptoms are associated with poor postoperative quality of life (QOL), leading to prolonged hospital stays, and delayed return to society. Previous studies show that physical and mental states change on the third day after surgery, and there is a correlation between quality of recovery (QoR) on this day and QOL at 3 months after surgery. QoR after surgery is an important indicator of postoperative QOL. However, there are no reports on the association between depressive symptoms, and postoperative QoR. Therefore, the study purpose was to clarify the relationship between depressive symptoms in perioperative cancer patients during the prehospitalization waiting period, and QoR on the third postoperative day.
DESIGN
This was a prospective cohort study.
METHODS
We examined whether depressive symptoms during the prehospitalization waiting period were related to QoR on day 3 after surgery in perioperative cancer patients. Subjects were patients with primary tumors who underwent surgery under general anesthesia. Subjects completed self-administered questionnaires during the prehospitalization waiting period and on postoperative day 3. The presence and/or absence of depressive symptoms was measured using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale. Subjects were divided into two groups: depressive symptoms or non-depressive symptoms. Postoperative QoR was determined using the QoR-40 questionnaire and we calculated the rate of change in QoR-40 global and dimension scores from preoperation to postoperation.
FINDINGS
231 individuals met the inclusion criteria and agreed to participate in the study. Of these, 173 were included in the analysis. Only the rate of change in emotional state differed significantly between groups (P = .022). Both global and dimension QoR-40 scores were lower in the depressive symptoms group than in the non-depressive symptoms group.
CONCLUSIONS
These findings demonstrate the need to provide both psychological and physical support continuously from the preoperative to early postoperative stage for cancer patients with depressive symptoms in the prehospitalization waiting period.

Open abdominal surgery evolved around two incisions, vertical and transverse incisions. Transverse incisions are associated with less postoperative morbidities but offer limited access. Vertical incisions offer better access but are associated with more complications. We describe here a hybrid incision, transverse-vertical incision that offers adequate exposure for complex lower abdominopelvic surgery while overcoming the limitations and morbidities associated with midline and transverse incisions.

Revista Brasileira de Enfermagem 2023to construct and validate an educational booklet for self-care of patients in the postoperative period of cardiac surgery.
OBJECTIVE
to construct and validate an educational booklet for self-care of patients in the postoperative period of cardiac surgery.
METHODS
methodological study, including bibliographic survey, construction of the booklet and validation with judges and the target audience. For validation with judges, the Health Educational Content Validation Instrument was used, and with the target audience, an instrument was used with questions related to organization, writing style, appearance and motivation. To analyze the judges' answers, the content validation index was used.
RESULTS
the booklet was prepared with 14 topics. The content validation index among the eight judges was 1 and the concordance index among the ten patients was above 80%. The final version of the material was made available in printed format.
CONCLUSION
the educational booklet was developed and validated by judges and the target audience, serving as an educational support tool for self-care of patients in the postoperative period of cardiac surgery.
