Frontal Alpha Asymmetry and Pediatric Emergence Delirium
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This study aimed to investigate whether the association between the preoperative anxiety level and emergence delirium involves EEG frontal alpha asymmetry in pediatric patients undergoing ophthalmic surgery under general anesthesia. The investigators hypothesized that EEG frontal alpha asymmetry contributes a significant portion of the preoperative anxiety - emergence delirium association in pediatric patients. Mediation analysis will be performed to estimate the relationships between preoperative anxiety of children (modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale (mYPAS)), EEG frontal alpha asymmetry, and emergence delirium (Pediatric Assessment of Emergence Delirium (PAED) scale).

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Children with emergence delirium Pediatric patients who develop emergence delirium in the post-anesthetic care unit (PACU). Emergence delirium will be assessed using the Pediatric Assessment of Emergence Delirium (PAED) scale every 10 min until PACU discharge. |
Procedure: Ophthalmic surgery
Ophthalmic surgery will be performed as standard practice of our institution.
Procedure: General anesthesia
General anesthesia will be performed as standard practice of our institution.
|
Children without emergence delirium Pediatric patients who do not develop emergence delirium in the post-anesthetic care unit (PACU). Emergence delirium will be assessed using the Pediatric Assessment of Emergence Delirium (PAED) scale every 10 min until PACU discharge. |
Procedure: Ophthalmic surgery
Ophthalmic surgery will be performed as standard practice of our institution.
Procedure: General anesthesia
General anesthesia will be performed as standard practice of our institution.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- The peak PAED score [After the completion of surgery, during the PACU stay. PAED score will be measured every 10 minutes during the PACU stay.]
The peak PAED score is the primary outcome variable for mediation analysis
