Trial summary

Emergence agitation (EA), a phenomenon observed at the time of recovery from general anesthesia (GA).The cause of ED appears to be multifactorial in origin. Use of volatile anesthetics, prolonged duration and type of surgery, pain, and rapid emergence are some factors known to increase its incidence Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Emergence Delirium in Pediatric Age Group: Comparison Between Sevoflurane and Intravenous Anesthesia in Hypospadias Repair: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Emergence agitation (EA), a phenomenon observed at the time of recovery from general anesthesia (GA).The cause of ED appears to be multifactorial in origin. Use of volatile anesthetics, prolonged duration and type of surgery, pain, and rapid emergence are some factors known to increase its incidence

Read the detailed description

The pathogenesis of postoperative EA is still undefined, but sevoflurane has intrinsic effects that may share in emergence agitation like its different electroencephalogram pattern from halothane, and its degradation to inorganic fluoride ions and compound A which may have a role in the occurrence of EA Sevoflurane now is the inhalational anaesthetic agent of choice for pediatrics, as it is non-pungent, with minimal airway irritation characters, and its cardiac adverse effects are minimal like cardiac depression and dysrhythmias.

Total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) using propofol and fentanyl appears to have a smooth recovery profile

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Emergence delirium

    The pediatric anesthesia emergence delirium (PAED) scale. Each must be evaluated as not at all, just a little, quite a bit, very much, or extremely, where the first three items to be scored reversely (4 = not at all, 0 = extremely) while the last two items to be scored regularly.

    Measured: 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. FLACC

    The Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, and Consolability scale is a frequently used tool for pain assessment in children, with a total score of 0 to 10

    Measured: Postoperatively at 24 hours
