This study measured parental anxiety before, during, and after elective dental procedures under general anesthesia using the Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety questionnaire. State anxiety started relatively high before the procedures, peaked immediately after induction using general anesthesia, and dropped during recovery to below the initial score. Parents, whose children were premedicated and fathers in general, had significantly higher anxiety immediately after induction. This study supports interventions to lower anxiety of the parents as well as that of children.
本研究使用斯皮尔伯格状态-特质焦虑问卷，测量了在全身麻醉下进行择期牙科手术前、手术期间及手术后父母的焦虑情况。状态焦虑在手术前相对较高，在全身麻醉诱导后立即达到峰值，并在恢复期间降至初始分数以下。孩子接受了术前用药的父母以及一般情况下的父亲，在诱导后立即表现出明显更高的焦虑。本研究支持采取干预措施来降低父母以及孩子的焦虑。
