Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Visual Analogue Scale	Visual Analog Scale (VAS): It is a straight line with a length of 10 cm. On the '0 line', there is "no pain" and on the '10 line', it is "unbearable pain". The child is asked to mark the place indicating the severity of his/her pain.	one hour after the patients were taken to the patient's room after the surgery
Primary	Wong-Baker Faces Pain Scale	This was developed by Donna Lee Wong and Connie Morain Baker. This scale is used to determine the level of pain in children over three years of age.

The validity and reliability of the scale were performed by Özusta (1993).The scale consists of two parts as; 'state anxiety scale' and 'trait anxiety scale'. It consists of 40 items in total, 20 items in each part. The STAI-C was adapted from an adult scale and is also known as the "How I Feel Questionnaire". it comprises separate self-report scales for measuring two distinct anxiety concepts: state anxiety (S-Anxiety) and trait anxiety (T- Anxiety). The 20- item scale asseses a number of symptoms of anxiety such as "I get a funny feeling in my stomach" and "I am checking one of three alternatives that describes him or her best or indicates frequency of occurrence ( 1 = almost never; 2 = sometimes; 3 = often ).	one hour after the patients were taken to the patient's room after the surgery
