In brief
This multicenter prospective observational study aims to culturally adapt the Pediatric Quality of Recovery Scale into Turkish and to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Turkish version in pediatric surgical patients. Children aged 2 to 17 years undergoing elective outpatient or inpatient surgery under general anesthesia will be included. Postoperative recovery will be assessed using the Turkish version of the Pediatric Quality of Recovery Scale and a 0 to 100 millimeter visual analog scale, with age-appropriate child self-report or parent-proxy report.
