Brief Summary: The first goal of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety between anxiolysis by multimedia-distraction with an IPAD versus anxiolysis by premedication with midazolam prior to the induction. Secondly to evaluate the need for midazolam-premedication in pediatric day-care patients induced by inhalational anesthesia.
Detailed Description: Perioperative anxiety in children is a common multifactorial influenced and triggered entity with an incidence as high as 50%. Especially (mask)induction of anesthesia is considered one of the most stressful experiences for a child undergoing surgery. A common practice worldwide to diminish the level of anxiety prior to anesthesia is premedication with the benzodiazepine midazolam in order to improve cooperation during induction.

Premedication with midazolam has a primary purpose to reduce preoperative anxiety and has inherent to a benzodiazepine its sedative effects. Although these effects are implied, negative effects of premedication: respiratory complications, paradoxical negative behavior has been reported. Although alternative medications have been studied, studies for non-pharmacological anxiety-reduction remain limited.

Non-pharmacological anxiety-reduction by distraction including Tablet or IPAD-multimedia might be a readily available alternative for midazolam premedication. Potentially limiting the use of psychoactive agents, limiting the need for preoperative sedation and therefore possibly decrease secondary respiratory complications in pediatric surgical day-care.

Objective:

The first goal of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety between anxiolysis by multimedia-distraction with an IPAD versus anxiolysis by premedication with midazolam prior to the mask-induction of anesthesia. Secondly to evaluate the need for midazolam premedication in pediatric day-care surgery patients induced by inhalational anesthesia.
