Description of intervention(s) / exposure
After being admitted to the Post-Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU), two assessment scales were employed to evaluate the level of postoperative agitation and delirium in patients at four time intervals: 0, 5, 15, and 30 minutes. The first scale used was the Cravero Emergence Agitation Score, a 5-point scale ranging from 1 (Obtunded with no response to stimulation) to 5 (Thrashing behavior that requires restraint). Patients who scored higher than 3 on the Cravero agitation scale for a minimum of 5 minutes were categorized as experiencing postoperative delirium.
To assess the postoperative pain status, the FLACC score (Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability score) was documented at the same time intervals: 0, 5, 15, and 30 minutes. A FLACC score of 4 or higher was used as the threshold to define the presence of pain.
The data in this study were recorded by the participating anesthetists.

Statistical methods / analysis
Based on the existing studies in the literature, the sample size required for the study was calculated as 45 participants in the power analysis conducted assuming the sensitivity with 80% power and 5% margin of error. The sample size was increased as a result of the interim analyses. The data obtained from the study were analyzed on the SPSS 24 (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences – IBM®) software. Descriptive statistics were used for the distribution of the responses given to the independent variables, numbers and percentages for categorical variables and means, standard deviation and medians for numeric variables. In paired and multiple comparisons, chi-square test was performed for categorical variables, and independent t-test and One Way Anova were used for quantitative variables. Tukey test was conducted for the comparison of quantitative data among more than two groups. The results obtained were accepted as significant with a p value of p<0.05 and the corresponding confidence interval of 95%.
