Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study is a single-center, prospective, randomized, controlled trial. To investigate if preoperative using of eye patch will decrease emergence agitation, and to provide a better method of decreasing emergence agitation to pediatric ophthalmic anesthesiologists.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Behavioral: eye patch
  • Behavioral: non-eye patch

Detailed Description

This study is a single-center, prospective, randomized, controlled trial. To investigate whether preoperative using of eye patches will decrease emergence agitation or not, and to provide a better method of decreasing emergence agitation to pediatric ophthalmic anesthesiologists. The investigators will recruit 180 children undergoing elective cataract surgery, divided into 2 groups by random method. experimental group will cover the effected eye for 3 hours before the operation, while the control group will not. Then the investigators will observe and mesure the incidence of emergence aditation in each group, to assess whether preoperative patch shading can reduce the incidence of postoperative agitation.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: eye patch

cover the sick eye with eye patch for 3 hours preoperatively.

Behavioral: eye patch
cover the sick eye with eye patch preoperatively for 3 hours
Other Names:
  • eye shade
  • eye shield
  • Placebo Comparator: non-eye patch

    do not cover the sick eye before surgery.

    Behavioral: non-eye patch
    do not cover the sick eye with eye patch preoperatively
    Other Names:
  • eye shade
  • eye shield
  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. the Padiatric Anesthesia Emergence Agitation Scale [every ten minutes postoperatively, up to 1 hour. Start measuring since the end of surgery until the patient back to ward from postanesthesia care unit.]

      measure patients with the pediatric anesthesia emergence agitation scale,the score more than 10 is defined as emergence agitation.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. induction compliance checklist [1 minute before general anesthesia began.]

      measure patients with induction compliance checklist before anesthesia.

    2. heart rate (HR) [every ten minutes postoperatively, up to 1 hour. Start measuring since every ten minutes postoperatively, up to 1 hour. Start measuring since the end of surgery until the patient back to ward from postanesthesia care unit.]

      measure patients' HR when patient arrived at the post operative care unit

    3. respiration rate(RR) [every ten minutes postoperatively, up to 1 hour. Start measuring since the end of surgery until the patient back to ward from postanesthesia care unit.]

      measure patients' RR and SpO2 when patient arrived at the post operative care unit

    4. oxygen saturation(SpO2) [every ten minutes postoperatively, up to 1 hour. Start measuring since the end of surgery until the patient back to ward from postanesthesia care unit.]

      measure patients' SpO2 when patient arrived at the post operative care unit

    5. incidence rate of emergence agitation [every ten minutes postoperatively, up to 1 hour. Start measuring since the end of surgery until the patient back to ward from postanesthesia care unit.]

      calculate the number of occurrence of emergence agitation
