Summary

Risk factors associated with perioperative anxiety in parents of pediatric patients undergoing thoracic surgery are unknown. It is therefore necessary to identify them in order to better understand, above all, modifiable factors. This will allow the implementation of psychological interventions tailored to the individual needs of parents to strengthen their coping mechanisms before surgery, and thus facilitate the recovery process of their children after surgery. The purpose of the study is: 1. assessment of the level of anxiety experienced by parents before and after thoracic surgery, 2. assessment of risk factors for parents' perioperative anxiety, 3. assessment of the relationship between parents' perioperative anxiety and satisfaction with postoperative analgesia
