What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This observational study compares how quickly and smoothly younger children (ages 3-6) recover from propofol-based intravenous anesthesia versus older children (ages 6-12). Researchers will track 64 children undergoing elective surgery, measuring the time to reach safe discharge criteria, as well as eye-opening time, pain, emergence delirium, and breathing complications. The goal is to understand how age-related differences in metabolism affect recovery, which could improve postoperative care and expectations for pediatric anesthesia.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
propofol-based total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA)
What this could lead to
If age-related recovery differences are confirmed, this could help tailor anesthesia care and discharge planning for children, improving safety and comfort after surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small observational study, so results may not apply to all children or surgeries. It does not test a new treatment, and individual recovery can vary widely.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

The study population consists of pediatric patients aged 3 to 12 years with an American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status of I or II, scheduled for elective surgical procedures at Assiut University Hospitals. Eligible participants are those anticipated to have a surgical duration between 30 and 120 minutes and who receive propofol-based total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) as their primary anesthetic technique. Patients are excluded from the population if they present with neurological disorders, developmental delay, hepatic or renal impairment, obesity (greater than the 95th percentile), or if they are taking concomitant sedative medications.

Ages
