Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

this study is a prospective,randomized, active treatment controlled trial.It enrolls 100 children .

after written and informed consent,the study participants were randomly assigned using a computer generated table to one of two treatment groups prior to elective surgery.

Group T: will receive an interactive tablet containing many cartoon's videos 20 minutes before the parental separation and until the anesthesia induction Group MD:will receive oral midazolam 20 minutes before parental separation with 0.5 mg/kg (max 20mg) Anxiety assessement was done using the Modified Yale Perioperative Anxiety Scale( MYPAS) at the separation of parents,the admission in the operating room and the anesthesia induction.
