Tools A researcher developed demographic questionnaire will be used to collect information from a parent that includes patient age, gender, previous surgery, any medication allergies, and primary caregiver. The Amsterdam Preoperative Anxiety and Information Scale (APAIS) will be used to assess parent feelings of anxiety in the preoperative phase. The APAIS is short 6-item questionnaire with acceptable reliability with Cronbach's alpha greater than or equal to 70 and correlated highly (0.74) with the widely used State Trait Anxiety Scale. Because of its length, the APAIS can be quickly administered to parents of children undergoing surgery in order to assess parental preoperative anxiety . The measure will be completed on all parent participants after consent is obtained. The tool takes approximately 1-2 minutes to score.
