Brief Summary: Bariatric surgical procedures are associated with low short-term mortality and may be associated with long-term reductions in all-cause, cardiovascular, and cancer-related mortality. This surgeries are major surgeries include risk of mortality still. Melatonin is a hormone secreted from the pineal gland. Melatonin is an antioxidant, antinociceptive, hypnotic, anticonvulsant, neuroprotective, anxiolytic, sedative and analgesic. Melatonin is neurohormone with the profile of a novel hypnotic-anesthetic agent. The purpose of this study is to investigate the preoperative, perioperative and postoperative melatonin levels in bariatric surgery under general anesthesia and to investigate the relationship between melatonin level and analgesia requirement.
Detailed Description: Bariatric surgical procedures are associated with low short-term mortality and may be associated with long-term reductions in all-cause, cardiovascular, and cancer-related mortality. This surgeries are major surgeries include risk of mortality still. Melatonin is a hormone secreted from the pineal gland. Melatonin is an antioxidant, antinociceptive, hypnotic, anticonvulsant, neuroprotective, anxiolytic, sedative and analgesic. Irregularity of melatonin secretion causes a sleep irregularities, psychosis in intensive care unit and some behavioral disorder. The hypnotic, antinociceptive, and anticonvulsant properties of melatonin endow this neurohormone with the profile of a novel hypnotic-anesthetic agent. The purpose of this study is to investigate the preoperative, perioperative and postoperative melatonin levels in bariatric surgery under general anesthesia and to investigate the relationship between melatonin level and analgesia requirement.
