This study aims to analyze the dominant factors associated with the time to recover consciousness of patients with laparotomy, general anesthesia in the Recovery Room of Bhayangkara Hospital Tk I Jakarta. The research method used is analytical research with a cross-sectional approach. The results showed a relationship between age and recovery time after general anesthesia post-laparotomy (p = 0.028). There was a difference between the sexes and the time to recover consciousness of the laparotomy patients with general anesthesia (p = 0.04). There was a difference between ASA and recovery time of conscious laparotomy patients with general anesthesia (p = 0.01). There was a correlation between BMI and awake in patients with available anesthesia laparotomy (p = 0.0005). There was no relationship between body temperature, fasting time, and duration of operation with p values (0.59, 0.6, and 0.94), respectively. In conclusion, the dominant factor that affects the recovery time of consciousness in post-laparotomy general anesthesia patients is body temperature, namely hypothermia.
