Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • PAED scale

    Observe whether the index will cause delirium during the recovery period.The evaluation range of the PAED scale is 0-20 points, If the score exceeds 10 points, Then it is considered delirium.

    10 minutes after surgery

  • Gesell scale

    Through the gesell scale, 5 tests are carried out on children: gross motor ability, fine movement, physical ability, verbal ability, and human ability.The evaluation range of the Gesell scale is 0-100 points. If the score is higher, it means good. If the score is low, it means that the result is not good. If the result is not good, it may be caused by anesthesia, so we conducted this evaluation.

    2 day after surgery

Secondary Outcomes (8)

  • Heart Rate

    During the induction period of anesthesia, intubation, and the operation period;immediately after entering the resuscitation room (T1), 5 minutes before extubation (T2), immediately after extubation (T3), and 2 minutes after extubation (T4);

  • Mean Blood Pressure

    During the induction period of anesthesia, intubation, and the operation period;immediately after entering the resuscitation room (T1), 5 minutes before extubation (T2), immediately after extubation (T3), and 2 minutes after extubation (T4);

  • Extubation time

    immediately after surgery

  • Ramsay sedation score

    10 minutes after extubation

  • Postoperative pain CHEOPs scores

    20 minutes after extubation

  • +3 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Intervention group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Before the operation, the patient took 20ml of brown sugar aqueous solution containing folic acid and VitB12 for 3 days (folic acid concentration is 0.4mg / d for 2 year old children + 1.2μg / d of VitB12, dissolved in 20ml brown sugar water once a day). Postoperatively, PAED scores were performed at the time of awakening, extubation and every 10min within 30min after extubation. 10 points is defined as delirium during the recovery period). Long-term neurobehavioral changes were evaluated using the Gesell scale, followed up every six months until the age of three

Dietary Supplement: Folic acid and vitamin B12

Placebo group

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

The patients in the placebo group took 20 ml of brown sugar aqueous solution with the same concentration as the intervention group 3 days before the operation. Postoperatively, PAED scores were performed at the time of recovery, extubation, and every 10 minutes within 30 minutes after extubation. The PAED scores of all children were measured by the same person. (The total score is 0-20, and the score ≥10 is defined as delirium during the recovery period). Long-term neurobehavioral changes were evaluated using the Gesell scale, followed up every six months until the age of three
