Calming kids after surgery: which drug works best?

NCT ID NCT06312618

Summary

This study compared two medications, propofol and dexmedetomidine, to see which works better at preventing agitation when children wake up from anesthesia after squint (eye muscle) surgery. Researchers enrolled 80 children aged 3-7 years to measure restlessness, crying, and confusion after surgery. The goal was to find the safer, more effective option to improve recovery for young patients.
