Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
SFQ scores measured at timepoints 1, 2, 3, and 4

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
• salivary cortisol measured at time points 1,2,3, and 5. At all time points three samples will be taken: morning after awakening, afternoon 15:00-16:00hrs, evening 20:00-21:00hrs. At time point 3, the second and third sample are collected in-hospital pre- and postoperatively. • Salivary alpha amylase, measured at time point 3 in the same saliva sample used for cortisol determination. • NRS (0-10) fear score. On the day of surgery, together with the salivary samples a one-item fear score will be assessed. • Retrospective evaluation of own surgical fear measured at timepoint 3 post-operatively on a five-point Likert scale. • Preferences for treatment of surgical fear, assessed at time point 5. • Surgical recovery, assesed at timepoint 5 with the Global Surgical Recovery (GSR)Scale (0-100%). Also postoperative pain will be assessed with a NRS score (0-10).
