Emergence agitation (EA) in children early after sevoflurane anaesthesia is a common postoperative problem, with incidence ranging up to 80%. Younger patients, particularly in the age range from 1.5 to 5 yr of age, are at increased risk of EA. Preoperative anxiety, as measured by the modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale, has been shown to increase the risk of EA for each increment of 10 points in the child's state anxiety score. So, Alleviates preoperative anxiety in Children maybe decrease the incidence and severity of EA. Preschool children enjoy watching animated cartoons, and they can be immersed to animated cartoon so they become oblivious of their surroundings. Therefore, viewing an animated cartoon maybe reduce preoperative anxiety in children. This study was performed to determine effect of animated cartoon for prevention of emergence agitation in children aged 1.5 - 5 yr after general anesthesia

Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium (PAED) Scale
Subjects' behavior was rated in the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) from the moment subjects opened their eyes, and every 5 minutes until discharge from the PACU. The Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium (PAED) Scale (Sikich \& Lerman, 2004) was used. The scale assesses 5 behaviors (making eye contact, purposefulness of actions, awareness of surroundings, restlessness, and consolability) on a 5-point scale that ranges from 'not at all' to 'extremely'.
Time frame: (PAED) Scale changes from the moment subjects open their eyes, and every 5 minute for 24hours
