Acerca de la investigación
Preoperative anxiety refers to a range of physical and/or psychological manifestations, which can have a significant impact on medical outcomes and the experience of the child and their parents. This study aims to evaluate the impact of preoperative preparation combined with a hypnosis session conducted by nurse anesthetists (IADE) trained in working with children and their families. The goal is to improve the child's experience and reduce perioperative anxiety and stress.
It is divided into two phases:
- First phase, called "Before": Standard preoperative care is provided according to the existing protocol in the department. Anxiety levels will be measured at the time of induction in the operating room.
- Second phase, called "After": In the two weeks prior to surgery, in addition to the standard preoperative care currently in place, the patient will receive a 30-minute visit from a nurse anesthetist trained in hypnosis. This is an added procedure complementing the anesthesia consultation. The visit is divided into two parts: 10 minutes to review and clarify the explanations given by the anesthesiologist and surgeon, and 20 minutes of a formal hypnosis session. A personalized liaison form will be completed to facilitate communication between the consultation and the operating room. Anxiety levels will again be measured at the time of induction.

Plazo: Day 1 ( Anesthesia induction and surgery)
Mesure of the Modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale by anesthetics or surgical nurse. The total score ranges from 23 to 100: children are considered moderately anxious for a score above 24, and highly anxious for a score above 30.
Medidas secundarias
Children's compliance during induction as assessed by the Induction Compliance Checklist
Plazo: Day 1 (Anesthesia induction)
Induction compliance check list at the time of anesthetic induction
Time spent in the PACU
Plazo: Day 1 ( From arrival in the PACU until return to the hospital room)
Duration in minutes between arrival in the PACU and return to the hospital room
Postoperative delirium as assessed by the PAED Scale
Plazo: Day 1 (After surgery)
Assessed in the PACU using the PAED scale (Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium).
Postoperative pain as assessed by the VAS scale
Plazo: Day 1 (After surgery)
Evaluated in the recovery room using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Total scole ranging from 0 to 10 where a higher scores mean worse pain.
Postoperative pain as assessed by the FLACC scale.
Plazo: Day 1 (After surgery)

Postoperative pain as assessed by the PPMP scale
Plazo: Day 2 and 5 after sugery
Assessed by parents on postoperative days 2 and 5 using the Parents' Postoperative Pain Measure (PPPM), either during hospitalization or via telephone follow-up. The score ranges from 0 to 15, where a higher scire mean worse pain
Behavioral assessment
Plazo: Day 1, 2 and 5 after sugery
The child's postoperative behavior will be assessed on postoperative days 2, 5, and 14 using the PHBQ (Post-Hospitalization Behavior Questionnaire), either in the hospital or via a phone call.
