Study Summary

Primary Objective: To evaluate the impact of postoperative exogenous nocturnal melatonin supplementation on the early regulation of the sleep-wake cycle and its clinical impact (subjective improvement of the quality of sleep and reduction of cardiopulmonary events) during the first postoperative week following anesthesia and surgery in older breast cancer patients receiving a unilateral segmental mastectomy with or without intraoperative lymph node mapping, sentinel node biopsy and axillary node dissection. Secondary Objective: To collect data and validate the Postoperative Srejic Sleep SAT Survey Questionnaire (SAT implies relative subjective satisfaction of the patient's sleep in a scaled score out of 100 with 100 being the highest degree of satisfaction).

Primary Outcome

Objective responses measured by wrist actigraph (measures sleep movement), and the Sp02 monitor (measures the % oxy-hemoglobin in the blood)

Interventions
