What this Trial Is About
The operating room environment can be frightening for pediatric patients. Many techniques have been used to make the operating room environment less intimidating, including allowing parents to accompany part of this procedure, play therapy and various distraction strategies during the entrance to the operating room. In a survey study, it was reported that parents were expected to create hospital conditions with a more child-friendly atmosphere. In this context, it is thought that creating a warmer environment for children, including the clothes worn in the operating room, may reduce the anxiety level of children. In this study, investigators' aim was to investigate the effect of wearing an hospital gown with cartoon characters on the reduction of preoperative anxiety in children scheduled for Orthopedic surgery by in the operating room.
