Impact of Problematic Media Use on Postoperative Pain in Children Undergoing Tonsillectomy
Sponsor: Tokat Gaziosmanpasa University
Summary
This observational study aims to investigate whether problematic media use is associated with postoperative pain severity in children aged 4-11 years undergoing tonsillectomy. A total of 94 parents who consent to participate and have children within the target age range will be included. Data will be collected using a structured questionnaire covering sociodemographic characteristics, family and child media habits, parental attitudes toward screen use, and the Problematic Media Use Scale (PMUS). Postoperative pain will be assessed using the FLACC scale at multiple time points within the first 24 hours after surgery.
