How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

What does the primary outcome measure?

pediatric anesthesia emergence delirium (PAED) scale (time frame: during stay in postanesthesia care unit). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
