The Effects of Nitrogen Protoxide and Oxygen on Corneal Endothelial in Pediatric Patients

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Cornea
Anesthesia; Reaction
Interventions
Other: Nitrogen protoxide
Other: Oxygen
Registration Number
NCT03006211
Lead Sponsor
Inonu University
Brief Summary

To evaluate the mean changes in Endothelial Cell and Corneal pachymetry in eyes that operated under N2O + sevoflurane and O2 + sevoflurane general anesthesia.

Detailed Description

40 eyes of 40 patients who had extraocular surgery under general anesthesia will be included in this prospective study. Cell density, Cell variatio, Hexagonality rate and pachymetry specular microscopy results at before surgery and 1 week and 1 month after surgery will be analyzed. O2 (1 l/min) with 50% air and N2O (1 l/min) with 50% air will be applied to each group with flow rate 2 l/min totally, respectively. The duration of surgery will be recorded.
