Summary

This study designed to evaluate the correlation between the effect of intraoperative magnesium sulfate infusion and the incidence of emergence agitation after pediatric ophthalmic surgery

Detailed description

Emergence agitation (EA) is a frequent postoperative complication in pediatric patients after general anesthesia. There are several suggested causes of EA and pain has been considered one of them. Magnesium is an N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist and increasingly used as an analgesic-adjuvant. We evaluate the Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium (PAED) Scale to investigate whether the intraoperative infusion of magnesium sulfate reduces the incidence of EA in pediatric patients who undergo ophthalmic outpatient surgery.
