Analysis of factors impacting postoperative pain and quality of life in patients with mixed hemorrhoids: A retrospective study

Table 3 Comparison of World Health Organization Quality of Life – BREF score between 14 and 28 d after surgery

Item	Time	mean ± SD	t value	P value
Quality of life	14 d after operation	3.79 ± 0.57	25.087	< 0.001
	28 d after operation	4.79 ± 0.46
Health condition	14 d after operation	4.01 ± 0.62	17.174	< 0.001
	28 d after operation	4.80 ± 0.41
Physical health	14 d after operation	23.41 ± 2.85	80.282	< 0.001
	28 d after operation	32.10 ± 2.96
Psychological health	14 d after operation	21.37 ± 1.70	78.541	< 0.001
	28 d after operation	27.22 ± 1.62
Social relation	14 d after operation	6.32 ± 1.66	81.973	< 0.001
	28 d after operation	12.21 ± 1.59
Surrounding environment	14 d after operation	28.42 ± 2.86	80.092	< 0.001
	28 d after operation	37.13 ± 2.88

Multiple linear regression analysis of the pain scores at 3 and 7 d after the mixed hemorrhoid operation showed that age, sex, and the number of surgical resections, but not the anesthesia mode (P > 0.05), were the factors influencing mixed hemorrhoid surgery outcomes (P < 0.05).
