Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The incidence of dexamethasone-induced perineal irritation

    The investigators record the number of cases of dexamethasone-induced perineal irritation (pain or pruritus) and calculate the incidence

    During the first 3 min period after the injection of dexamethasone

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Duration of perineal irritation

    After the injection of dexamethasone, up to 5 minutes

  • The severity of perineal irritation

    After the injection of dexamethasone, up to 5 minutes

Study Arms (4)

2 ml dexamethasone (5 mg/ml)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

50 patients receive 2 ml dexamethasone (5 mg/ml) , the injection time of dexamethasone was less than 2s.

Drug: Dexamethasone

5 ml dexamethasone (2mg/ml)

EXPERIMENTAL

50 patients receive 5 ml dexamethasone (2mg/ml) diluted with 5% glucose, the injection time of dexamethasone was 30s.

Other: Diluted dexamethasone 5ml

10 ml dexamethasone (1mg/ml)

EXPERIMENTAL

50 patients receive 10 ml dexamethasone (1mg/ml) diluted with 5% glucose, the injection time of dexamethasone was 30s.

Other: Diluted dexamethasone 10ml

20 ml dexamethasone (0.5mg/ml)

EXPERIMENTAL

50 patients receive 20 ml dexamethasone (0.5mg/ml) diluted with 5% glucose, the injection time of dexamethasone was 30s.

Other: Diluted dexamethasone 20ml

Interventions
