Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Listening to family member’s recorded voice during recovery from general anaesthesia  In a calm environment, the family member will be requested to speak the below mentioned lines in their usual voice tone and in the patients native language for making a recording: ‘OO (name of patient/nickname), wake up. Your operation is complete. You are alright. Let’s go home. OO dear, wake up. Open your eyes. Take a deep breath’ Following the operation, the pre- recorded message will be played at 10-second intervals, with the volume adjusted to typical speech levels (50-60 dB) which will be delivered using the noise-cancelling headphones. After gently suctioning of oral secretions from the oropharynx, extubation will be cautiously conducted once participants can breathe spontaneously and respond to verbal commands. The voice recording will continue to be delivered to the patient until they are transferred to the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU). 
Comparator Agent  Listening to stranger’s recorded voice during recovery from general anaesthesia  In a calm environment, an individual unfamiliar with the patient will be requested to speak the below mentioned lines in their usual voice tone and in the patients native language for making a recording: ‘OO (name of patient/nickname), wake up. Your operation is complete. You are alright. Let’s go home. OO dear, wake up. Open your eyes. Take a deep breath’ Following the operation, the pre- recorded message will be played at 10-second intervals, with the volume adjusted to typical speech levels (50-60 dB) which will be delivered using the noise-cancelling headphones. After gently suctioning of oral secretions from the oropharynx, extubation will be cautiously conducted once participants can breathe spontaneously and respond to verbal commands. The voice recording will continue to be delivered to the patient until they are transferred to the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU).

Response - NO
Brief Summary   Delirium in the immediate postoperative period is a commonly encountered complication amongst patients in the PACU posing many immediate challenges and affecting long term outcomes. The incidence of Emergence Delirium (ED) varies greatly based on patient status as well as type of surgery but evidently higher in elderly population as compared to young adults. There is no universally accepted delirium risk prediction tool and opinions on drug-based prophylaxis of ED remain conflicting and there isn’t any conclusive evidence. However, most of the evidence published till date supports the use of non-pharmacological methods to prevent delirium. Amongst others, auditory stimuli are an easy and effective tool and have shown promising results. A clinical trial conducted in the paediatric population has shown that listening to mother’s recorded voice during emergence can reduce ED in children compared with hearing the recorded voice of a stranger. So we have planned an RCT to study the effectiveness of repeated auditory stimulus in the form of a family member’s recorded voice listened to during recovery compared with a stranger’s voice on the incidence of ED after general anaesthesia, especially in the elderly population keeping in mind the higher incidence in this age group.
