Vitamin D Level and Emergence Delirium in Children

Completed
Conditions
Delirium
Interventions
Diagnostic Test: PAED
Registration Number
NCT05076162
Lead Sponsor
Aydin Adnan Menderes University
Brief Summary

In our study, we aimed to evaluate the relationship between vitamin D levels and postoperative delirium in children who had undergone tonsillectomy and/or adenoidectomy.

Detailed Description

Patients are assigned to one of two groups. Serum 25(OH)D level will be determined as \<12 ng/ml group 1, group 2 with ≥12 ng/ml. ASA I-II children aged 2-10 years who will undergo adenoidectomy and/or tonsillectomy surgery under general anesthesia will be included in the study. In the operating room, the patient will monitored using electrocardiography, pulse oximetry, noninvasive blood pressure measurements, capnography. Under anesthesia, blood samples were taken for serum 25(OH)D levels. After extubation, patients will be taken to the recovery room. Delirium will be evaluated using the PAED (Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium) scale at 10-minute intervals in the recovery unit. In our study, 25(OH)D level was measured.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The scale of emergence deliriumup to 30 minutes after arrival in postanesthetic care unit

After extubation, when spontaneous eye opening and extremity movement started, the patients were taken to the recovery room.

The patients were evaluated with PAED (Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium) in the recovery unit. PAED scores were recorded at the time of admission to the postoperative recovery unit and at 10-minute intervals. Patients with a PAED score of 10 and above in any measurement during this time period were recorded as delirium positive.
