NCT ID NCT07571707
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether giving children a lollipop right after surgery can reduce the confusion and restlessness some kids experience when waking from anesthesia. Researchers will compare 66 children aged 2-6 who get a lollipop versus those who get standard care. The goal is to see if this simple, non-drug approach can make recovery smoother and safer.
