The Impact of Meditation on Anxiety and Post-Operative Pain in Pediatric Patients Undergoing Urological Surgery

1. The aim of this study is to assess anxiety in pediatric patients preoperatively, perioperatively, and postoperatively and whether meditation reduces anxiety in the days before, during, and after the surgery. 2. The second aim of this study is to see if longitudinal meditation is associated with decreased postoperative pain by examining whether the group prescribed meditation has reduced pain medication intake, measured by the frequency of liquid analgesic medicine intake.
