Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to compare electroencephalogram (EEG) guided propofol sedation versus standard care in paediatric patients aged 6-16 undergoing oesophagogastroduodenoscopy and colonoscopy. The main questions it aims to answer are whether EEG guided propofol sedation will result in: - faster wake up time - reduced time to discharge - reduced cumulative propofol dosage - lower incidence of intraoperative adverse events - no difference in intraoperative undesirable movement - lower incidence and severity of emergence delirium - lower intraoperative depth of sedation Participants will wear an EEG sensor (Sedline) prior to undergoing propofol sedation until they wake up post procedure.
Determining the efficacy of the BIS monitor in monitoring deep hypnotic states as well as intra- and post-operative outcomes in neurosurgery patients
Emergence agitation (EA) is a post-operative behavioral disturbance was first reported in early 1960s. EA is a term used to describe non purposeful restlessness and agitation, thrashing, crying or moaning, disorientation and incoherence during early stage of recovering from general anesthesia in children, especially those receiving sevoflurane. Generally, the incidence of EA following sevoflurane anesthesia varies from 10% to 66% and is more common in pre-school children. EA is generally short lived without obvious aftereffect. However, it still accompanies with risk of self-injury, and requires extra nursing care, which may delay the discharge and increase the cost of medical care Emergence agitation is diagnosed by a final composite score of greater than or equal to 10 on the Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium Scale (PAED).(
To evaluate the feasibility of a pragmatic, large scale, comparative effectiveness, randomized evaluation of patient experience of intravenous propofol versus inhaled volatile anesthesia.
The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility and acceptability of enhanced preoperative education using a Pediatric Interactive Relational Agent (PIRA), designed for children ages 4 through10 years and their families, compared to the standard preoperative education currently provided. The study will also look at any differences in anxiety between the two educational groups.
Electroencephalographic recordings (EEG) present an opportunity to monitor changes in human brain electrical activity during changing states of consciousness during general anesthesia. The investigators aim to determine if EEG-guided anaesthesia using the Masimo Sedline Root monitor will result in different anaesthetic requirements, different anaesthetic depth, and emergence characteristics in children under 16 years of age. 200 children under 16 years undergoing routine general anaesthesia under sevoflurane will be randomized to either EEG monitoring or routine care. We will compare the anaesthetic requirements, the patient state index, number of episodes of burst suppression and the incidence and severity of emergence delrium between the two groups.
Emergence delirium/emergence agitation (ED/EA) is a behavioral phenomenon of unclear etiology consisting of short lived behavioral changes that can be both traumatic to families and pose a safety risk to patients and staff. ED is characterized by a variety of presentations, including crying, excitation and agitation, that occur during the early stage of recovery from general anesthesia, generally in the first 30 minutes. Emergence delirium occurs in children of all ages following an anesthetic with halogenated agents (e.g. sevoflurane/isoflurane) with or without having undergone a surgical procedure (e.g. MRI patients). Presently, the treatment for ED is to revert the patient back to a hypnotic state mainly with sedatives so that they may "reset" themselves postulating that by re-inducing a hypnotic state, the brain has time to resolve this issue. The hypothesis of this study is that during ED, there is failure of organized EEG activity, especially alpha wave activity and that by enhancing alpha activity, the incidence of ED may be reduced without the need for additional pharmaceuticals which may be costly, delay recovery and are not without adverse effects specifically cardiopulmonary depression through the use of blue monochromatic light.
