Overview
Brief Summary
The aim of this prospective study is to investigate whether the anxiety levels of parents of children aged 2-6 years who will undergo inguinal area surgery have an effect on the child's preoperative anxiety level and postoperative pain level.
Detailed Description
Hospitalization of children for any health problem or treatment is a complex and difficult process that negatively affects the child and his family and creates stress. Surgical treatment in children can be planned or unplanned, minor or major, invasive or non-invasive, but every type of surgery is considered a stressful experience. Studies have shown that by controlling the anxiety and fear experienced in the preoperative period, children can achieve faster recovery in the postoperative period, better pain tolerance and earlier discharge. For this reason, we aim to contribute to the literature by investigating whether the anxiety levels of the parents of children aged 2-6 who will undergo inguinal area surgery affect the child\'s preoperative anxiety level and postoperative pain level.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Pain levels of children undergoing surgery
Time Frame: postoperative period
Pain levels of all children taken to the recovery unit will be measured with the FLACC (Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolabilityscale) score at the 5th, 10th, 20th and 30th minutes.
Anxiety level of the child undergoing surgery
Time Frame: preoperative and intraoperative period
According to the m-YPAS (modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety) scale, children's anxiety levels will be calculated in the preoperative waiting room (T1) and when the anesthesia ventilation mask is shown (T4).
Anxiety level of parents
Time Frame: preoperative period
It will be measured with STAI-I and STAI-II (State-Trait Anxiety Scale) scale forms.
Secondary Outcomes
- heart rate(up to 8 hour postoperative)
- complication(up to 24 hour postoperative)
