NCT05800639

Brief Summary

This study aimed to investigate whether the association between the preoperative anxiety level and emergence delirium involves EEG frontal alpha asymmetry in pediatric patients undergoing ophthalmic surgery under general anesthesia. The investigators hypothesized that EEG frontal alpha asymmetry contributes a significant portion of the preoperative anxiety - emergence delirium association in pediatric patients. Mediation analysis will be performed to estimate the relationships between preoperative anxiety of children (modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale (mYPAS)), EEG frontal alpha asymmetry, and emergence delirium (Pediatric Assessment of Emergence Delirium (PAED) scale).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The peak PAED score

    The peak PAED score is the primary outcome variable for mediation analysis

    After the completion of surgery, during the PACU stay. PAED score will be measured every 10 minutes during the PACU stay.

Study Arms (2)

Children with emergence delirium

Pediatric patients who develop emergence delirium in the post-anesthetic care unit (PACU). Emergence delirium will be assessed using the Pediatric Assessment of Emergence Delirium (PAED) scale every 10 min until PACU discharge.

Procedure: Ophthalmic surgeryProcedure: General anesthesia

Children without emergence delirium

Pediatric patients who do not develop emergence delirium in the post-anesthetic care unit (PACU). Emergence delirium will be assessed using the Pediatric Assessment of Emergence Delirium (PAED) scale every 10 min until PACU discharge.

Procedure: Ophthalmic surgeryProcedure: General anesthesia

Interventions

Ophthalmic surgery will be performed as standard practice of our institution.

Children with emergence deliriumChildren without emergence delirium
