  ABSTRACT: Objective: There are few studies about restlessness and awakening of children during recovering from anesthesia accompanied by parents. Only one related study was retrieved in China. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of awakening, agitation and pain level in children after tonsillectomy accompanied by their parents. Methods: Children who met the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into experimental group and control group according to coin tossing method. There were 30 cases in the experimental group and 32 in the control group. The control group received routine nursing while the experimental group was given parental presence on the basis of routine nursing. Steward awakening score, Pediatric anesthesia emergence delirium (PAED), Scale and FLACC pain assessment scale were used to evaluate the children when they entered anesthesia recovery room and awaked respectively. Results: There was no significant difference in the scoring of three scales between the two groups when they entered anesthesia recovery room (P > 0.05). There was significant difference in Steward awakening score and PAED scale between the two groups when they came to recovery room (P P > 0.05). Conclusion: Parental presence can improve the recovery effect and reduce the restlessness of children after operation. Our study suggests that anesthetic children should be accompanied by their parents in the future.
