No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Our goal in this study is to investigate the feasibility and acceptability of virtual parental presence of parents on anxiety in children at induction of anesthesia at Cincinnati Children's Hospital, an institution whose use of parental presence on induction is deeply ingrained in our culture, and to determine the impact of coaching of parents either prior to arrival at the hospital vs. on the day of surgery on efficacy of virtual parental presence on induction. Our primary hypothesis is that virtual PPIA is both feasibile for the smooth induction of general anesthesia and is acceptable to parents, patients, and anesthesia providers at our isntutition. Our secondary hypothesis is that the coaching of parents prior to virtual PPIA enhances the effect of video parental presence at induction of anesthesia on children's anxiety and that coaching prior to arrival at the hospital will allow for increased ease and use of this technique.
