It is aimed to investigate the effect of introducing the operating room environment with an informative video to pediatric patients aged 7-12 in the preoperative period in day surgery on pain, fear, and patient and parent satisfaction. In line with this purpose, an answer was sought to the question "How did the different education programs given to children who will undergo day surgery have an effect on fear, pain and satisfaction?" It will be conducted in a single center, parallel group, randomized controlled experimental design. The research will be carried out between December 2022 and October 2023 and it is planned to continue for 12 months. The population of the research will be children between the ages of 7-12 who will undergo a day surgery at Tarsus State Hospital, and the sample will be 90 children who meet the criteria for inclusion in the research. Considering that there may be case losses, a total of 90 children (1st experimental group \[watched video training\]:30 children, 2nd experimental group \[provided planned training\]: 30 children, control group: 30 children) will be included in the sample group. In the collection of research data; Introductory Information Form, Numerical Pain Scale, Child Fear Scale, Vital Signs Follow-up Form (Appendix 4) will be used.
