简要总结
The study evaluated an educational pop-up book about general anesthesia induction as an interactive, child-focused preoperative education resource for pediatric patients undergoing outpatient surgery. The study's objectives were to evaluate the book as an educational tool and to understand the book's effects on patient and caregiver perceptions of the surgical experience. The study's hypotheses were that preoperative education from the pop-up book, compared to standard care, would more effectively reduce children's fear and expected pain, facilitate more positive views of the procedure and preoperative explanations, encourage adaptive coping strategies, reduce behavioral anxiety at anesthesia induction, and increase caregiver satisfaction with the surgical experience.

结局指标
主要结局
Observer-Rated Behavioral Anxiety at Anesthesia Induction as assessed by the modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale-Short Form
时间窗: Baseline anxiety was rated upon initial entry into the preoperative holding area; anxiety at induction was rated while patients received inhalational induction via an anesthesia mask.
Patients' behavioral anxiety at anesthesia induction was assessed relative to baseline using the observer-rated modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale-Short Form. The scale ranges from 22.92-100; higher scores indicate greater anxiety (worse outcomes). Raters were preoperative nurses and circulating nurses blinded to group assignments.
次要结局
- Self-Reported Coping Strategies for Managing the Stress of Anesthesia Induction(Patients were interviewed after education and before premedication was administered.)
- Caregiver Satisfaction with the Surgical Experience as assessed by a Likert-Scale Questionnaire(The questionnaire was administered after the patient underwent anesthesia induction.)
- Expectations about the Procedure, Attitudes about Anesthesia, and Views of Preoperative Explanations as assessed by a Likert-Scale Questionnaire(The outcomes were rated after education and before premedication was administered.)
- Fear of Anesthesia Induction as assessed by the Children's Fear Scale(Fear was rated after education and before premedication was administered.)
- Expected Pain from the Anesthesia Mask and During Surgery as assessed by the Faces Pain Scale-Revised(Expected pain was rated after education and before premedication was administered.)
