Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study aims to investigate whether detailed and illustrated information (comics) about anaesthesia reduce preoperative anxiety in children being subjects to craniotomy.

Children scheduled for craniotomy are randomized to groups receiving a comic leaflet explaining the course of anaesthesia before preanaesthesia visit or no intervention.

Preoperative anxiety is assessed with anxiety scale STAIC for the two groups of participants.
