It is necessary that all parties are prepared as well as possible regarding information, preferences, and expectations. Smooth separation of child and family, be it before or after induction, should be clearly facilitated by clearly stated instructions and participation of perioperative personnel. Psychological factors such as sex, age, cognitive level, family learning, and culture; situational factors such as expectation, control, and relevance; emotional factors such as fear, anger, and frustration; and behavioral factors such as coping style, overt distress, and parental response need to be assessed and taken into account.
