NCT06662968

Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to observe the consumption effect of early lollipop sucking in preschool children after adenotonsillectomy through clinical experiments, and to explore the impact of early postoperative lollipop consumption on postoperative agitation, incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting, and postoperative wound recovery rate. Participants will be randomly allocated to two groups:a lollipop sucking group (Group A) and a control group (Group B), Two groups of children were sent to the recovery room (PACU) for observation after extubation . Group A patients were given lollipops for sucking after waking up, while Group B received routine nursing treatment. The goal of this clinical trial is to explore whether lollipops have advantages in early postoperative feeding and alleviating postoperative agitation in children, and to provide reliable clinical evidence for the consumption of lollipops after surgery.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Postoperative agitation score

    Postoperative agitation score will be recorded at 6 time points, including the time of entering the recovery room (Time 0), when the lollipop is given (Time 1), when the lollipop is given for 10 minutes(Time 2), when the lollipop is given for 20 minutes(Time 3), when the lollipop is given for 30 minutes(Time 4) and leave the recovery room (T5).

    Time Frame: intraoperative period,10 minutes-1 hours

  • Incidence of nausea and vomiting

    Incidence of nausea and vomiting will be recorded during the time of the recovery room and four hours after returning to the ward .

    Postoperative 1 minute-5hours

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Spo2

    Postoperative 1 minute - 5hours

  • other adverse reactions

    Postoperative 10 minutes - 3days

  • the time of leaving the recovery room and the hospital

    Postoperative 1 hour - 3days

  • family satisfaction

    Postoperative 5 hours

Study Arms (2)

Lollipop group

EXPERIMENTAL

Lollipop group patients were given lollipops for sucking in the PACU

Control group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Control group patients were received routine nursing treatment in the PACU.

Interventions

In the Lollipop group,children were sent to the recovery room (PACU) for observation after extubation after surgery.They were given lollipops for sucking without chewing after waking up.Throughout the entire sucking process, we continuously monitor vital signs.

In the Control group,children were sent to the recovery room (PACU) for observation after extubation after surgery.They were received routine nursing treatment.
