About this study

Official title: The Effect of Preoperative Anxiety on Postoperative Delirium in Children Who Will Undergo Circumcision Surgery

Investigation of the effect of preoperative anxiety on postoperative delirium in children who will undergo circumcision operation

Read the detailed description

In order to determine the effect of circumcision on preoperative anxiety and postoperative delirium, patients will be divided into two groups who will undergo circumcision surgery and who will undergo inguinal hernia surgery.

Modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scores (m-YPAS), Visual Analogue Scale Anxiety (VAS-anxiety) will be evaluated when patients are taken to the preoperative waiting room.

After awakening, patients will be taken to the postoperative wake-up room where Pediatric Anesthesia Recovery Delirium Scores (PAED), Recovery Agitation 5-point Scores (EA), FLACC scores will be evaluated every 5 minutes and mean arterial pressure, pulse, SPO2 values will be recorded. Duration of stay in recovery unit will be recorded

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Preoperative anxiety difference between groups

    Preoperative anxiety will be evaluated by mYPAS (modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale). The mYPAS consists of 22 items in five categories (activity, emotional expressivity, state of arousal, vocalization and use of parents). The highest behavioral level observed in each of the five mYPAS categories is the score for that category. Partial weights were calculated and then added to a total score that ranged from 0 to 100. Cut off points were set to classify: a score of 23.4 to 30 for no anxiety, any score greater than 30 for anxiety.

    Measured: Before premedication, in operating room

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. emergence agitation difference between groups

    Emergence agitation will be evaluated by PAED scale (pediatric anesthesia emergence delirium). The PAED scale involves five items: eye contact, purposeful actions, awareness of the surroundings, restlessness, inconsolability. First three items are scored as follows: 4= not at all, 3= just a little, 2= quite a bit, 1= very much, 0= extremely. Last two items are scored as follows: 0= not at all, 1= just a little, 2= quite a bit, 3= very much, 4= extremely. The scores of each item will summed to obtain a total score. PAED scale score of 10 or more will be defined as emergence delirium.

    Measured: postoperative every 5 minutes during 20 minutes

  2. effect of parent's anxiety on child's anxiety

    parent's anxiety will be evaluated by visual analog scale (VAS) at preoperative holding area

    Measured: before premedication

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Preoperative Anxiety and Postoperative Delirium, run by Ankara Diskapi Training and Research Hospital at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Preoperative anxiety difference between groups (time frame: Before premedication, in operating room). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Jan 2020.
