Dexmedetomidine Effect on Emergence Agitation and Delirium in Children Undergoing Laparoscopic Hernia Repair: a Preliminary Study

Abstract: ObjectiveTo evaluate the safety and efficacy of dexmedetomidine (Dex) to prevent emergence agitation (EA) and delirium (ED) in children undergoing laparoscopic hernia repair under general anesthesia.Methods100 children (1–5 years, 10–25 kg) were randomized into four groups: controls (saline) and intravenous Dex at 0.25, 0.5, and 1.0 µg/kg (D1, D2, D3, respectively). Dex/saline infusion was started following anesthesia. EA and ED were evaluated on a 5-point scale.ResultsFor the C, D1, D2, and D3 groups, respect… Show more

“…A total of 24 RCTs were included in the present meta-analysis. [4][5][6][7][8][9][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31] The results showed that, compared with placebo, Dex was associated with positive effects on recovery quality in children undergoing general anaesthesia with sevoflurane, reducing nausea and vomiting and shortening the eye-opening time, extubation time, and duration of PACU stay. Unlike the present study, Amorim et al 10 reported that Dex reduced the incidence of emergence agitation while prolonging the duration of PACU stay and eye-opening time.…”

“…Subgroup analysis revealed that sample size was the main source of heterogeneity (Table 3). Thirteen RCTs reported the eye-opening time, 5,7,9,14,15,18,19,24,25,28,29 I 2 ¼ 79.9% (P < 0.001), and these were combined using a random-effects model. Dex was found to be associated with reduced eyeopening time versus placebo (SMD 0.72, 95% CI 0.41, 1.03; P < 0.001; Figure 6 and Table 2).…”

“…In general cerebral oxygenation is an important consideration in neonatal medicine. A number of clinical reports indicate that a fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO 2 ) ranging from 0.3 to 1.0 may be used in pediatric practice (for example, (Ahiskalioglu et al, 2017; Mohamed, 2015; Sun et al, 2017; von Bormann et al, 2014; William et al, 2001)) depending upon the circumstances. However, in neonatal and pediatric anesthesia, the use of supplemental oxygen is common in order to avoid hypoxia, as has been described in a number of reviews (Bang, 2015; Dikmen and Onur, 2017; Sola, 2008).…”

“…The dose of dexmedetomidine ranged from 0.3 µg/kg to 1.0 µg/kg. Among the six included RCTs, two trials reported analgesic consumption [19,25], two trials reported number of rescue analgesics and time to rst analgesia [18,19], two trials reported emergence agitation [18,25], as well as two trials reported pain scores at 1 h and 2 h [17,19]. Jadad scores of the six included studies vary from 3 to 5, and all six studies have high-quality based on the quality assessment.…”
