pediatric patients undergoing strabismus surgery.
Clinical Details
Official title: Intranasal Dexmedetomidine Versus Intranasal Midazolam-ketamine Combination for Premedication of Pediatric Patients Undergoing Strabismus Surgery
Study design: Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Double Blind (Subject, Caregiver, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor), Primary Purpose: Prevention
Primary outcome: the efficacy of premedication on ramsey sedation score
Secondary outcome: the effects of premedication on oculocardiac reflexmask acceptance scale the parenteral separation anxiety scale
Detailed description:
Preanesthetic medication in pediatrics is very helpful in relieving anxiety, fear and
psychological trauma due to maternal deprivation. Midazolam and ketamine are commonly used
for this purpose. Dexmedetomidine is an alpha 2 - agonist with a more selective action on the
alpha 2 adrenoreceptor when administered via the nasal mucosa bioavailability of
dexmedetomidine is too high. Intranasal route is an effective way to administer
premedication and sedation to children. The oculocardiac reflex is a major complication of
pediatric strabismus surgery.
