The Effect of Paedfusor TCI, Eleveld TCI, and Sevoflurane Anesthesia on Postoperative Awakening Agitation in Pediatric Patients

Emergence delirium is a common complication in pediatric patients undergoing general anesthesia. The aim of this study is to investigate the incidence of postoperative awakening delirium and agitation in pediatric patients aged 3-10 years (ASA I-II) using two different target-controlled infusion (TCI) methods (Paedfusor and Eleveld) for TIVA, compared to inhalation anesthesia. This study will examine the effect of two different TCI models on postoperative awakening agitation/delirium by comparing them with each other and with inhalation anesthesia.

Ride-On Toy Car Use During Operating Room Transfer in Preschool Children

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether the method of transfer to the operating room can reduce preoperative anxiety and postoperative emergence delirium in male children aged 3 to 7 years undergoing elective adenoidectomy and/or tonsillectomy. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does transfer using a ride-on toy car reduce preoperative anxiety compared with standard stretcher transfer? * Does this transfer method affect the incidence and severity of postoperative emergence delirium? Researchers will compare toy car transfer with standard hospital stretcher transfer to see if the toy car transfer is associated with lower anxiety levels and reduced emergence delirium. Participants will: * Transfer to the operating room either using a ride-on toy car or a standard hospital stretcher * Have preoperative anxiety assessed at predefined time points * Be evaluated for postoperative emergence delirium during recovery

Personal Versus Hospital-Provided Dolls in Preschool Children

The goal of this study is to evaluate the effects of personal versus hospital-provided dolls on preoperative anxiety and postoperative delirium in preschool children aged 3-7 years undergoing elective adenoidectomy and/or tonsillectomy. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is the use of a personal doll or a hospital-provided doll associated with lower preoperative anxiety compared with no doll use? * Is dolls used associated with a reduced incidence and severity of postoperative emergence delirium? * Researchers will compare children accompanied by a hospital-provided doll, children accompanied by their personal doll, and children with no doll to assess differences in preoperative anxiety levels, serum cortisol concentrations, and postoperative delirium scores. Participants will: * Be observed in one of three exposure groups (hospital-provided doll, personal doll, or no doll) * Undergo standardized preoperative anxiety assessments at predefined time points * Have serum cortisol levels measured during routine intravenous cannulation * Be assessed for postoperative delirium in the recovery unit
