Overview

Brief Summary

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.

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.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

the Padiatric Anesthesia Emergence Agitation Scale

Time Frame: 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.

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

Secondary Outcomes

  • induction compliance checklist(1 minute before general anesthesia began.)
  • heart rate (HR)(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.)
  • respiration rate(RR)(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.)
  • oxygen saturation(SpO2)(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.)
  • incidence rate of emergence agitation(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.)
