Being tested
Giving orientation with headphones, Emergence as usual with headphones
Keywords

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Giving orientation with headphonesOther

    During emergence, recorded voice of an investigator giving Information of orientation (time, place, patient's own name) is repeatedly played from noise-cancelling headphones

  • Emergence as usual with headphonesOther

    During emergence, recorded voice of an investigator calling the patient's name is repeatedly played from noise-cancelling headphones

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Incidence of emergence agitation at operating room (OR)

    Riker sedation agitated scale ≥5

    Measured: 20 minutes after anesthesia emergence

Secondary outcomes (11)
  1. Incidence of dangerous emergence agitation

    Riker sedation agitated scale =7

    Measured: 20 minutes after anesthesia emergence

  2. maximal Riker sedation agitated scale during emergence

    maximum value of Riker sedation agitated scale during emergence

    Measured: 20 minutes after anesthesia emergence

  3. Time to emergence

    Time from anesthetics off to eye opening/extubation/discharge from OR

    Measured: 20 minutes after anesthesia emergence

  4. Bispectral index (BIS)

    BIS value at desflurane discontinuation/verbal response/extubation

    Measured: 20 minutes after anesthesia emergence

  5. Incidence of emergence agitation at PACU

    Riker sedation agitated scale ≥5

    Measured: 30 minutes after PACU adminstration

  6. Incidence of postoperative delirium

    Delirium scale (CAM)

    Measured: 30 minutes after PACU adminstration / Postoperative 24 hours

  7. Postoperative Pain

    NRS score (0-11) of pain

    Measured: 10/20/30 minutes after PACU administation / Postoperative 24 hours

  8. PACU stay

    Length (hours) of PACU stay

    Measured: up to 3 hours after PACU administration

  9. Postoperative opioid consumption

    Postoperative opioid requirement

    Measured: 30 minutes after PACU adminstration / Postoperative 24 hours

  10. Analgesics requirement

    Analgesics other than opioid requirement

    Measured: Postoperative 24 hours

  11. Postoperative quality of recovery

    Korean version of quality of recovery-15

    Measured: Postoperative 24 hours
