N2  - 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.
