Summary
Emergence delirium (ED), characterized by disorientation and altered cognitive behavior, is a common postoperative complication in pediatric surgery. It manifests as lack of eye contact with caregivers or parents, aimless kicking and screaming, and inability to be soothed. Auditory stimulation has been shown to reduce the incidence of ED and postoperative pain during emergence following general anesthesia in children. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effects of different types of auditory interventions on the incidence of emergence delirium in children undergoing tonsillectomy and/or adenoidectomy under sevoflurane anesthesia.
