Emergence agitation (EA) is common phenomenon in pediatric patients undergoing general anesthesia by inhalation agents. The incidence of EA was reported to range from 18% to 80%. Sevoflurane now is the inhalational anesthetic agent of choice for pediatrics, Different strategies have been suggested to decrease the incidence and severity of EA. No gold standard technique for treating EA after sevoflurane anesthesia is currently available. The main question is can caudal dexmedetomidine be used for this purpose?
This study will be a randomized double blind placebo controlled clinical trial among children undergoing adeno-tonsillectomy in KNH. The intervention arm will comprise Fentanyl given at a dose of 1ug/while the placebo arm will be given normal saline at a volume equivalent to Fentanyl dose, treatment will be administered approximately ten minutes to the end of surgery determined by the time when the mouth gag will be removed. The main outcome will be incidence of ED at the recovery room using Watcha scale and secondary outcomes will be delay in emergence time from anaesthesia and effectiveness of fentanyl in preventing ED.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of transbucal dexmedetomidine given in preschool children undergoing tonsillectomy operations in the prevention sevoflurane agitation.
This study examines the potential link between deep levels of anesthesia and delirium.
Postoperative delirium occurs in up to 65% of elders undergoing surgery for repair of a hip fracture and this complication is independently associated with increased morbidity, mortality, length of hospital stay, and placement in long-term care institutions. To date, the only intervention shown to be effective at minimizing postoperative delirium is a proactive geriatric consultation. This prospective randomized clinical trial will randomize 160 adults, aged 65 years or older, to either optimized general anesthesia or usual general anesthesia care for hip fracture surgery to determine if the optimized anesthesia management reduces the severity of postoperative delirium.
Patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) have distinctive characteristics: they are old, frail, with several co-morbidities and take multiple medications. Hemodynamic instability, cerebral embolism, sedation, general anesthesia and hospitalization in intensive care expose those patients to postprocedural delirium. Acute neurocognitive dysfunctions are associated with adverse outcomes in these population. The objective of this study is to determine the incidence of delirium and neurocognitive disorders in elderly patients after TAVI.
This study evaluates the association between the depth of general anesthesia and the occurrence of emergence agitation (EA). The investigators hypothesized that optimal level of anesthetic depth could decrease the incidence of EA in children undergoing strabismus surgery compared to the deep level of anesthetic depth.
Emergence delirium which is a phenomenon seen commonly in preschool kids anesthetized with Sevoflurane. Restless recovery from anesthesia may not only cause injury to the child or to the surgical site, but may also lead to the accidental removal of surgical dressings, IV catheters, and drains. is one of the The purpose of the study is to find whether duration of exposure to Sevoflurane has any effect on the incidence of Emergence Delirium.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the incidence of emergence delirium will be reduced when end-tidal concentration of sevoflurane decreases.
