      abstract = {Pre-operative anxiety is a common phenomenon among  children and their parents with some studies suggesting it  occurs in up to 50% of children who are undergoing surgery  in the United States (U.S.). These higher levels of  pre-operative anxiety correspond to worse post-surgical  outcomes including increased pain, agitated emergence  delirium, and maladaptive behavioral change. However,  research has demonstrated that cultural consideration is  necessary; Hispanic children with Spanish-speaking parents  experience higher levels of pre-operative anxiety as  compared to white children with English-speaking parents.  This project is looking to identify an intervention for  reducing pre-operative anxiety in Spanish-speaking children  in order to improve their post-operative outcomes.   Moreover, this study may identify a novel way of tailoring  care for Spanish-speaking populations.},
