Summary

This study was planned as a prospective, observational study. The study will include pediatric patients aged 3-12 who will undergo surgery. Our hypothesis is that haemogram parameters, which are a simple, cheap and accessible method, and the inflammatory markers we obtain from them are associated with preoperative anxiety and emergence delirium

Detailed description

Inclusion criteria for the study: Pediatric patients aged 5-12 years, in the ASA I-II groups, who will undergo surgery in ophthalmology, urological surgery, ENT surgery, pediatric surgery, orthopedic and plastic surgery. Exclusion criteria for the study can be listed as follows: Those with genetic diseases affecting brain development, those diagnosed with psychiatric and neurological diseases, patients with attention deficit, mental retardation, those with hematological and/or immune system disorders, patients who will undergo surgery in neurosurgery and cardiovascular surgery. During the preoperative visit, parents and children will be informed and their written and verbal consent will be obtained. Patients will be taken to the preoperative waiting room and hemogram values and ratios (WBC, RBC, Hematocrit, Monocyte count, Neutrophil count, Lymphocyte count, Platelet count, PDW, MPV, MLR, NLR, NMR, PLR, PMR, PNR, PWR, SII) will be recorded from medical records. Demographic data (including age, gender, BMI, ASA score, fasting time, previous surgery, hospitalization status, the use of steroid), preoperative anxiety score (to be assessed with m-YPAS Turkish version), parental accompaniment, anxiety score of the parent (to be assessed with Likert scale), preoperative medication application, medications used in anesthesia, airway device, surgery and anesthesia durations will be recorded. The PAED score will be used for delirium agitation and all values will be recorded during the first 30 min. Pain scores (FLACC and VAS) will be recorded in the case report form.
