Patients resistance concerning diagnostic or therapeutic procedure are well known. In this trial patients-resistance during the perioperative period will be investigated in day-case-surgery. Features of the perioperative resistance of patients are medical conditions (like, heart rate, blood pressure, PONV, pain) and psychological conditions (like anxiety, fatigue, agression, complaints of depression). MedDRA version: 12.1 Level: LLT Classification code 10002865 Term: Anxiety reaction

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: Lorazepam is frequently used as an anaesthesiological premedication before surgery in order to reduce patients resistance. Does lorazepam also improve the quality of recovery in patients scheduled for day-case-surgery?;Secondary Objective: Developping a prognostic model, which tells us which patients are vulnerable and/or need (lorazepam as) premedication before surgery. And what is the influence of the pharmacogenetic background of lorazepam on this model?;Primary end point(s): Quality of recovery, aggression, anxiety, fatigue, depression symptoms | — |
