Sleep quality and emergence delirium in children undergoing strabismus surgery: a comparison between preschool- and school-age patients.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Emergence delirium (ED) is common in pediatric patients undergoing general anesthesia with sevoflurane. Preoperative sleep quality is associated with the risk factors for ED. However, research on the relationship between sleep quality and ED is limited. We aimed to investigate the relationship between ED and preoperative sleep quality in pediatric patients undergoing strabismus surgery.

Methods

This clinical trial included pediatric patients aged 4-12 years who underwent elective strabismus surgery. The patients and their parents were questioned about the patients' preoperative sleep quality using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) questionnaire. For anesthesia induction, thiopental (5 mg/kg) and rocuronium (0.6 mg/kg) were used, and anesthesia was maintained with sevoflurane (minimum alveolar concentration, 1-1.5). After administration of a reversal drug, extubation was performed, and the patients were transferred to a post-anesthesia recovery unit. At 10 min after extubation, the degree of ED was measured using the pediatric anesthesia emergence delirium (PAED) and Watcha scale scores.

Results

Of the 62 enrolled patients, three pediatric patients were excluded. The overall incidence of ED was 22%. A total of 59 patients were divided into the two groups. The ED group and the non-ED group comprised 13 and 46 patients. Age, height and weight were significantly lower in the ED group than in the non-ED group. Preoperative PSQI and Watcha scale score were significantly higher in the ED group than in the non-ED group. Multivariate analysis showed that age (adjusted OR [95% CI]: 0.490 [0.290-0.828], p = 0.008) and preoperative PSQI score (adjusted OR [95% CI]: 2.149[1.224-3.771], p = 0.008) was associated with ED. In sub-group analysis, PAED scale and Watcha scale scores showed a moderate correlation with preoperative sleep quality in preschool-age patients.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the incidence of ED tended to be higher in younger age and poorer preoperative sleep quality in pediatric patients. In particular, the poorer sleep quality score was associated with higher incidence of ED in the preschool-age. Large-scale clinical studies and long-term follow-up studies on ED and sleep quality are required.

Project description:Background: Emergence delirium in children following strabismus surgery is a distressing and potentially dangerous condition and is likely attributable to visual disturbances, pain, and anesthetic gases. We explored whether a single intraoperative dose of methadone could reduce emergence delirium. Methods: Our study was an institutional review board-approved prospective, controlled, before-and-after investigation. Inclusion criteria were age <18 years and American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) classification 1 or 2. Patients were excluded for obesity, documented sleep apnea, significant neurologic disease, or inpatient status. Control group patients were recruited sequentially, and the anesthetic was performed per preference. The study group was recruited similarly and received an intravenous dose of methadone 0.15 mg/kg at induction. The primary outcome was peak score on the Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium (PAED) scale. Secondary outcomes included time to anesthetic emergence, postoperative pain scores, postanesthesia care unit (PACU) length of stay, and postdischarge respiratory complications. Results: Forty-nine control group and 55 study group patients were recruited. No significant differences were found between groups for age, sex, weight, ASA classification, or duration of surgery. The control group received more preoperative midazolam, intraoperative fentanyl, and intraoperative ketorolac. Compared to the control group, the study group had 42% and 85% reductions in peak and severe PAED scale scores, respectively, in the PACU and required less rescue pain medications. Anesthetic emergence time and length of stay were not different between the groups. No significant postoperative complications occurred. Conclusion: Emergence delirium following outpatient pediatric strabismus surgery was substantially mitigated by the use of intraoperative methadone without affecting PACU throughput. No significant complications occurred. Further study is warranted to corroborate routine use of this drug for emergence delirium.

Project description:BackgroundPreoperative eye-covering training for 3 hours has been reported to effectively reduce the incidence of emergence delirium (ED) in preschool children. However, most children can only maintain the eye being covered for less than 60 min, and shortening eye-covering duration can also achieve similar clinical effects as long duration of eye-covering. This study was designed to compare the effects of 30-min and 60-min eye-covering pretreatment based on cartoon education only on preoperative anxiety, postoperative ED, and pain score after ophthalmic surgery with general anesthesia in preschool-aged children.MethodsPreschool-aged children (3-7 years) who were diagnosed with cataract, blepharoptosis, trichiasis, strabismus, eyelid tumor, and underwent ophthalmic surgery with general anesthesia from August 2021 to January 2022 were recruited. A total of 228 patients were randomly assigned at a 1 : 1:1 ratio to receive 30-min eye covering (30-min group), 60-min eye covering (60-min group) pretreatment, or programmed education only (C group). The preoperative anxiety, postoperative emergence delirium, and pain were compared between the groups.ResultsThe preoperative anxiety score, postoperative ED score, and incidence of ED in the 30-min group (n = 76) and 60-min group (n = 72) were significantly lower than those in the C group (n = 76), demonstrating a significant between-group difference (P < 0.001). However, the 30-min group and 60-min group had no significant difference in the abovementioned outcome measures (P > 0.05). Moreover, no significant difference was found in postoperative pain scores among the three groups (H = 0.274, P=0.872).ConclusionBoth 30-min and 60-min eye-covering pretreatments significantly reduce preoperative anxiety and postoperative ED after ophthalmic surgery with general anesthesia in preschool-aged children. The effects of the two groups show no intergroup difference, but the 30-min eye-covering pretreatment may be more convenient for practicing. Trial Registration.

Project description:What we already know about this topicCardiac surgery is associated with cognitive decline and postoperative delirium. The relationship between postoperative delirium and cognitive decline after cardiac surgery is unclearWhat this article tells us that is newThe development of postoperative delirium is associated with a greater degree of cognitive decline 1 month after cardiac surgery. The development of postoperative delirium is not a predictor of cognitive decline 1 yr after cardiac surgery.BackgroundDelirium is common after cardiac surgery and has been associated with morbidity, mortality, and cognitive decline. However, there are conflicting reports on the magnitude, trajectory, and domains of cognitive change that might be affected. The authors hypothesized that patients with delirium would experience greater cognitive decline at 1 month and 1 yr after cardiac surgery compared to those without delirium.MethodsPatients who underwent coronary artery bypass and/or valve surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass were eligible for this cohort study. Delirium was assessed with the Confusion Assessment Method. A neuropsychologic battery was administered before surgery, at 1 month, and at 1 yr later. Linear regression was used to examine the association between delirium and change in composite cognitive Z score from baseline to 1 month (primary outcome). Secondary outcomes were domain-specific changes at 1 month and composite and domain-specific changes at 1 yr.ResultsThe incidence of delirium in 142 patients was 53.5%. Patients with delirium had greater decline in composite cognitive Z score at 1 month (greater decline by -0.29; 95% CI, -0.54 to -0.05; P = 0.020) and in the domains of visuoconstruction and processing speed. From baseline to 1 yr, there was no difference between delirious and nondelirious patients with respect to change in composite cognitive Z score, although greater decline in processing speed persisted among the delirious patients.ConclusionsPatients who developed delirium had greater decline in a composite measure of cognition and in visuoconstruction and processing speed domains at 1 month. The differences in cognitive change by delirium were not significant at 1 yr, with the exception of processing speed.
