Summary

This trial will test if visual aids can help caregivers better understand risks & benefits of pediatric anesthesia before surgery.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for caregivers of children under 18 who are scheduled for elective surgeries like tonsil removal or hernia repair, requiring general anesthesia. It aims to help them understand the risks and process better.
What is being tested?
The study tests if using visual aids (like posters or pamphlets) during the consent process before surgery can improve caregivers' recall and satisfaction compared to just getting verbal information.
What are the potential side effects?
There are no direct medical side effects from participating in this trial as it involves receiving additional information through visual aids rather than a medical intervention.
