Methods
• Tablet arm receives 16 GB Wi-Fi iPad Mini ($329) (Apple Computers, Cupertino, CA) • Modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale (mYPAS) scored before separation, at separation, and at induction. • Parents surveyed to satisfaction with separation and their impression of child’s baseline anxeity. • Patient is allowed to choose from a variety of developmentally appropriate video games (see table) • Post operatively emergence delirium scale (PAED) assessed in PACU at 0 and 15 minute intervals. • Postoperative behavioral dysfunction assessed at 7 and 14 days by telephone using the post-hospitalization behavior questionnaire (PHBQ).
• TBID is effective as a sole or as an adjunct option for perioperative anxiolysis • Current research investigating use of TBID vs. pharmacologic anxiolysis in key metrics such as anxiety scores, time to discharge, emergence delirium, post-operative behavior dysfunction, and others. • Device acquisition cost higher than other options but greater flexibility

• Parental separation and induction of anesthesia are major sources for anxiety and stress in pediatric patients.
• This stress can cause behavioral changes that even parallel post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
• Techniques for alleviating such anxiety include sedating medications, parental presence during induction, and a variety of distraction techniques including video games (VG)
• Previous studies have demonstrated video games as effective as midazolam for anxiolysis
• VGs provide powerful distraction tool as interactive nature consumes attention
• Tablet computing offers unique advantages over other VG systems including: • Storage for hundreds of
developmentally appropriate low cost games on one device that can be easily changed.
• Source for other distraction media (eBooks, videos)
• Intuitive gesture based interface. • Age appropriateness and utility down
to age 1 (younger than non-tablet based VGs can accomplish).
• Eligible subjects: Age 1-11 years; ASA 1-2; outpatient surgery; first time anesthetic; no developmental or psychiatric diagnoses • Participants randomized to receive tablet based interactive distraction (TBID) vs. oral versed 0.5 mg/kg to max 20 mg • Parental presence excluded from study
Results • Data collection began 2/9/2013 • Results to date will be presented at
conference • Goal for 102 subjects enrolled in 3 age
