Giving Children a Voice in Pediatric Anesthesia
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study listens to what children, their families, and doctors think about anesthesia care (the medication that puts you to sleep during surgery). Researchers want to understand how to make the experience better and less scary for kids having procedures.

This study looks at how children feel about going through anesthesia (medicine to make them sleep during surgery). It aims to help make the experience better for kids.
This study compares two ways of giving anesthesia to children during planned surgeries: one that starts with an inhaled medicine and switches to an IV medicine, versus using only IV anesthesia from the start. The goal is to see which approach works better and is safer for children.
This study aims to improve how anesthesia care is delivered to children in participating hospitals. Because it includes all children having anesthesia, it may help ensure safer, better care during procedures.
This study tests a way to help children aged 5-12 feel less anxious before surgery. If successful, it could make the start of anesthesia calmer and more comfortable for your child.
This study asks children to complete a short satisfaction questionnaire while they are having planned surgery under general anesthesia. It aims to learn how kids feel about the perioperative (before, during, and after surgery) experience, which could help improve comfort and care for future patients.
This study tests whether playing music and reducing noise in the operating room can lower the amount of anesthesia and pain medicine needed for children aged 3 to 18 during surgery. It may help children feel more comfortable and recover more smoothly.
