The effects of the amount of perioperative fluid given in septorhinoplasty surgery on postoperative edema

Septorhinoplasty surgery follow-up forms of patients were retrospectively obtained for duration of surgery, patient age, height, weight and other demographic characteristics, induction and maintenance used in anesthetics during the procedure, perioperative systolic and diastolic arterial pressures and heart rate, and the perioperative amount of fluid given. Edema and ecchymosis score at 1 hour, 24 Hours, 7 days and 10 days were obtained. The degree of edema was assessed by 4 degree scale and ecchymosis was assessed by 5 degree scale. This information was used to determine any relationship between the amount of perioperative fluid given and the occurrence and severity of edema and ecchymosis after surgery.
