Summary
This study looked at 114 boys aged 2 to 7 having urogenital surgery to see if being anxious before the operation leads to more pain or confusion after waking up. Researchers measured anxiety before surgery and then tracked pain, delirium, and recovery speed in the recovery room. The goal is to understand if managing anxiety could improve surgical outcomes.
