The purpose of the study is to assess the impact of personalized music on emergence agitation (EA), as measured by Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium scores in pediatric patients recovering from elective procedures under general anesthesia.

The study has the potential to improve perioperative care by improving safety, decreasing the need for postoperative pharmacologic and nursing interventions, thereby shortening the time of recovery and improving caregiver satisfaction. Participants participating in this study will be randomly assigned to receive personalized music plus standard of care, or standard of care alone. Those assigned to the music group will receive music in the preoperative holding area as wel
