ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Emergence agitation in children is frequently associated with sevoflurane general anesthesia. We measured the effects of propofol and nalbuphine on emergence agitation after sevoflurane anesthesia in children for strabismus surgery.METHODS:
Ninety pediatric patients receiving sevoflurane anesthesia for elective strabismus surgery were enrolled. They were randomized to receive either saline (Group S), propofol 1 mg/kg (Group P), or nalbuphine 0.1 mg/kg (Group N) at the end of surgery. We evaluated the incidence of emergence agitation and recovery in the postanesthesia care unit.RESULTS:
The time to recovery was similar between the three study groups. The incidence of agitation was significantly lower in Group N compared with Group S, but the incidence of agitation between Group S and Group P was not different.CONCLUSIONS:
Nalbuphine 0.1 mg/kg at the end of strabismus surgery under sevoflurane anesthesia effectively reduced emergence agitation in children without delaying recovery, but propofol did not.
