Tamire T, et al. - Researchers sought to determine the magnitude of and factors associated with awareness with recall under general anesthesia via conducting an institution-based cross-sectional study on 1065 patients who underwent surgery under general anesthesia. Using the modified Brice questionnaire, they detected awareness under general anesthesia. They used interviewer-administered structured questionnaire and chart review. In SPSS version 20 computer software, they inscribed the data with complete information. Among 1065 patients, the response rate of 90.7% was reported. Under general anesthesia, they noted the magnitude of awareness with recall of 8.2%; of which, 4.9%, 2.6%, and 0.7% of patients reported hearing voice, pain, and sensation of breathing tube, respectively. This study indicated a higher magnitude of awareness with recall under general anesthesia compared to other studies.
