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. 000009577 540__ $$fCC BY 000009577 542__ $$fIn copyright - joint owners 000009577 650__ $$aSocial Justice$$026110 000009577 650__ $$aPediatrics$$023687 000009577 650__ $$aAnxiety$$014946 000009577 650__ $$aHealth Equity$$011457 000009577 650__ $$aSocial Determinants of Health$$040530 000009577 650__ $$aCommunication Barriers$$016937 000009577 6531_ $$apediatric anesthesia 000009577 6531_ $$acultural humility 000009577 6531_ $$apre-operative anxiety 000009577 6531_ $$alack of english proficiency (LEP) 000009577 7001_ $$aPrather, Haleigh$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000009577 7001_ $$aLazo, Tomás$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000009577 711__ $$aResearch Week$$uOregon Health and Science University$$d2022 000009577 8564_ $$99665e541-5374-4fd0-ad44-76d7d1250ae0$$s26691$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/9577/files/Prather-Haleigh-OHSU-ResearchWeek-2022.pdf 000009577 905__ $$a/rest/prod/08/61/2p/27/08612p276 000009577 980__ $$aResearch Week
