AI-Generated Maternal Voice Storytelling During Pediatric Adenotonsillectomy

10 de julho de 2026 atualizado por: Nezir Yılmaz, Adiyaman University Research Hospital

AI-Generated Maternal Voice Storytelling Modulates the Perioperative Stress Response and Reduces Emergence Delirium in Children Undergoing Adenotonsillectomy: A Three-Arm Randomized Controlled Trial

This prospective, three-arm randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effects of AI-generated maternal voice storytelling on the perioperative stress response, emergence delirium, anesthetic requirements, and perioperative physiological parameters in children undergoing elective adenotonsillectomy. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive AI-generated maternal voice storytelling, relaxing instrumental music, or standard perioperative care. Standardized anesthesia protocols will be used in all groups, and perioperative outcomes will be compared among the three study arms.

Visão geral do estudo

Descrição detalhada

Pediatric adenotonsillectomy is frequently associated with perioperative anxiety, autonomic stress responses, and emergence delirium despite standardized anesthetic management. Non-pharmacological auditory interventions, including music and maternal voice exposure, have been investigated as potential strategies to improve perioperative outcomes. However, the effects of personalized artificial intelligence (AI)-generated maternal voice storytelling have not been evaluated in pediatric surgical patients.

This prospective, single-center, three-arm randomized controlled trial will investigate the effects of AI-generated maternal voice storytelling on perioperative stress response, emergence delirium, anesthetic requirements, and perioperative physiological parameters in children undergoing elective adenotonsillectomy under general anesthesia. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: (1) AI-generated maternal voice storytelling, (2) relaxing instrumental music, or (3) standard care without auditory intervention.

The assigned auditory intervention will be initiated after premedication and continued throughout the perioperative period using headphones. Standardized anesthesia protocols will be applied to all participants. Emergence delirium will be assessed using the Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium (PAED) scale. Secondary outcomes will include induction compliance, perioperative hemodynamic variables, sevoflurane consumption, postoperative pain scores, and recovery characteristics. The study aims to determine whether personalized AI-generated maternal voice storytelling influences perioperative outcomes compared with relaxing music and standard perioperative care.

Intervenção / Tratamento
Experimental: AI-Generated Maternal Voice Storytelling group
Participants will receive personalized AI-generated maternal voice storytelling through headphones beginning after preoperative sedation and continuing throughout the perioperative period until recovery. The audio will be created from a pre-recorded maternal voice sample using artificial intelligence voice synthesis. Standardized general anesthesia will be administered.
Personalized storytelling generated using artificial intelligence voice synthesis based on a pre-recorded maternal voice sample. The audio intervention will be delivered through headphones after preoperative sedation and continued throughout the perioperative period until recovery.
All participants receive intravenous midazolam as standard premedication before anesthesia induction according to the institutional pediatric anesthesia protocol to reduce preoperative anxiety and facilitate smooth separation from parents.
All participants receive standardized general anesthesia according to the institutional pediatric anesthesia protocol. Anesthesia is induced with intravenous propofol, fentanyl, and rocuronium, followed by endotracheal intubation. Anesthesia is maintained with sevoflurane in an oxygen/air mixture throughout the surgical procedure. Intraoperative monitoring and anesthetic management are standardized for all study groups.
Over-ear headphones are used in all study groups during the perioperative period. In the AI-generated maternal voice storytelling and relaxing music groups, the headphones deliver the assigned auditory intervention. In the control group, headphones are worn without audio playback to minimize exposure to environmental noise and to maintain consistency across study groups.
Experimental: Relaxing Instrumental Music group
Participants will receive relaxing instrumental music through headphones beginning after preoperative sedation and continuing throughout the perioperative period until recovery. Standardized general anesthesia will be administered.
All participants receive intravenous midazolam as standard premedication before anesthesia induction according to the institutional pediatric anesthesia protocol to reduce preoperative anxiety and facilitate smooth separation from parents.

O que o estudo está medindo?

Medidas de resultados primários

Medida de resultado
Descrição da medida
Prazo
Emergence Delirium
Prazo: From admission to the post-anesthesia care unit until 30 minutes after arrival.
Emergence delirium will be assessed using the Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium (PAED) Scale. The PAED Scale consists of five items, with total scores ranging from 0 to 20. Higher scores indicate more severe emergence delirium, whereas lower scores indicate less or no emergence delirium.
From admission to the post-anesthesia care unit until 30 minutes after arrival.

Medidas de resultados secundários

Medida de resultado
Descrição da medida
Prazo
Induction Compliance
Prazo: During anesthetic induction.
Induction compliance will be assessed using the Induction Compliance Checklist (ICC). The ICC consists of 10 behavioral items, with total scores ranging from 0 to 10. Lower scores indicate better compliance with anesthesia induction, whereas higher scores indicate poorer compliance and greater distress during induction.
