Brief summary

The primary aim of this observational study is to evaluate the effect of playing a mother's voice to a child while the patient is being awakened from anesthesia on postoperative delirium. For this purpose, a recording of the mother's voice will be prepared before surgery. In this recording, the mother will reassure the child that they are safe and encourage them to remain calm. This recording will then be played to the patient during the awakening phase from anesthesia. The frequency of postoperative delirium in participants who were awakened by the voice recording will be compared with that of the patient group who were awakened without the voice recording.

Detailed description

In this study, mothers' anxiety levels will be measured and recorded using the STAI 1 and 2 questionnaires. Children's postoperative anxiety will be recorded using the modified Yale questionnaire and the PAED. Additionally, the FLACC scale will be used to record information in postoperative children.

Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame	Description
postoperative delirium	about a month and a half	The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of playing a mother's voice to a child while the patient is being awakened from anesthesia on postoperative delirium. To assess this effect, participants will be administered the Modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale, and in the postoperative period, the PAED and FLACC scales will also be applied.

Secondary

Measure	Time frame	Description
The mother's current and sustained anxiety levels.	1 and a half months	The mother will be asked to complete STAI TX 1 and STAI TX 2 forms, respectively, to assess her anxiety levels in both her immediate and normal daily life. The aim is to evaluate the relationship between the mother's anxiety level and the patient's frequency of delirium.
