KETODEX for Emergence Delirium in Children Undergoing Outpatient Strabismus Surgery

Completed

Conditions studied: Emergence Delirium, Strabismus

In brief

Strabismus surgery for children is a very common procedure, with a high incidence of emergence delerium in the recovery room. A combination of intravenous ketamine/dexmedetomidine, or ketodex, has been previously shown to reduce emergence delerium in children undergoing adenotonsillectomy. Here, we study its application in strabismus surgery.
