Summary
This study tests whether a special compression vest, which provides gentle pressure like a hug, can reduce confusion and agitation in children ages 3 to 10 after tonsil and adenoid surgery. Half the children will wear the vest in the recovery room, and the other half will receive standard care. Researchers will measure agitation levels and pain to see if the vest helps children wake up more calmly.
