About this study

Official title: Effects of Preoperative Using of Eye Patches on Prevention of Preschool Children Emergence Agitation After Cataract Surgery: A Single Center, Prospective, Randomized, Controlled Study.

This study is a single-center, prospective, randomized, controlled trial. To investigate if preoperative using of eye patch will decrease emergence agitation, and to provide a better method of decreasing emergence agitation to pediatric ophthalmic anesthesiologists.

Read the detailed description

This study is a single-center, prospective, randomized, controlled trial. To investigate whether preoperative using of eye patches will decrease emergence agitation or not, and to provide a better method of decreasing emergence agitation to pediatric ophthalmic anesthesiologists. The investigators will recruit 180 children undergoing elective cataract surgery, divided into 2 groups by random method. experimental group will cover the effected eye for 3 hours before the operation, while the control group will not. Then the investigators will observe and mesure the incidence of emergence aditation in each group, to assess whether preoperative patch shading can reduce the incidence of postoperative agitation.

Being tested

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. the Padiatric Anesthesia Emergence Agitation Scale

    measure patients with the pediatric anesthesia emergence agitation scale,the score more than 10 is defined as emergence agitation.

    Measured: every ten minutes postoperatively, up to 1 hour. Start measuring since the end of surgery until the patient back to ward from postanesthesia care unit.

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. induction compliance checklist

    measure patients with induction compliance checklist before anesthesia.

    Measured: 1 minute before general anesthesia began.

  2. heart rate (HR)

    measure patients' HR when patient arrived at the post operative care unit

    Measured: every ten minutes postoperatively, up to 1 hour. Start measuring since every ten minutes postoperatively, up to 1 hour. Start measuring since the end of surgery until the patient back to ward from postanesthesia care unit.

  3. respiration rate(RR)

    measure patients' RR and SpO2 when patient arrived at the post operative care unit

    Measured: every ten minutes postoperatively, up to 1 hour. Start measuring since the end of surgery until the patient back to ward from postanesthesia care unit.

  4. oxygen saturation(SpO2)

    measure patients' SpO2 when patient arrived at the post operative care unit

    Measured: every ten minutes postoperatively, up to 1 hour. Start measuring since the end of surgery until the patient back to ward from postanesthesia care unit.

  5. incidence rate of emergence agitation

    calculate the number of occurrence of emergence agitation

    Measured: every ten minutes postoperatively, up to 1 hour. Start measuring since the end of surgery until the patient back to ward from postanesthesia care unit.
