Ketones linked to Post-Anesthesia confusion in kids?
NCT ID NCT07249736
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This observational study is looking at 200 children aged 2 to 12 to see if higher ketone levels in the blood are linked to a higher risk of emergence delirium (confusion and agitation) after waking up from general anesthesia. Researchers will measure ketones and monitor recovery, but no new treatments are being tested. The goal is to better understand what factors might predict this common side effect in children.
