Brief Summary

Postoperative agitation is a common complication, it's incidence post head and neck surgery is around 11-26%. Avoiding such complication is mandatory to facilitate patient's recovery and reduce risk of postoperative agitation related complications. Our study aims to detect the incidence of agitation following nasal surgery, and to determine the midazolam effect on agitation, when administered just before emergence from anesthesia.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Development of agitation

    Agitation is diagnosed using the maximum score of Richmond Agitation Sedation Scale (RASS)

    Up to one hour after extubation

Study Arms (2)

Midazolam group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

In the midazolam group, patients double blindly received 0.03 mg.kg-1 midazolam intravenously just before emergence from general anesthesia.

Drug: Intravenous midazolam before emergence from general anesthesia

Placebo group

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

In the placebo group, patients double blindly received normal saline of similar volume to midazolam just before emergence from general anesthesia.

Drug: Intravenous normal saline before emergence from general anesthesia

Interventions

Intravenous administration of 0.03 mg/kg midazolam just before emergence from anesthesia.

Also known as: Versed
Midazolam group

Intravenous administration of normal saline just before emergence from anesthesia.

Also known as: Normal saline 0.9%
Placebo group
