Comparison of Propofol and Dexmedetomidine in Prevention of Emergence Agitation After Sevoflurane Anesthesia Following Inguinal Hernia Repair: A Randomized Control Trial

A randomized clinical trial in which we will compare a single dose propofol with a single dose of dexmedetomodine given at the end of surgery after sevoflurane _based anesthesia to prevent post operative emergence agitation which is a group of behaviours consisting of confusion , disorientation,hyperactivity and even physical harm to themselves and others. this behavioural response is assessed by a score which is called peadriatric anesthesia emergence delerium scale (PEAD) which consist of 5-itms and 5-point scale ,ranging from not at all to extremely.the total score range from 0 to 20,with higher scores indicating more svere emergence agitation . In this study , the PEAD score will be recorded at 0,5,10,15,and 30 minutes after the child reach the recovery room ,and score greater than 10 at any of these readings will be taken as emergence agitation or delerium.
