Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of combination of toy and cartoon video-assisted admission in preventing agitation during recovery from general anesthesia in preschool children.Methods:Totally 96 children who undergoing elective surgery from July 2018 to October 2019 in Guangzhou Women and Children′s Medical Center were divided into experimental group ( n=48) and control group ( n=48). Two groups were admitted to the general preoperative waiting room for 60 minutes before the operation, and children in the experimental group recieved toy and cartoon video combination intervention, while children in the control group were subjected to routine nursing intervention. The children′s agitation was assessed by using Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium Scale (PAED) when children entered the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU), 10 minutes after in PACU and leave PACU. In addition, the vital signs such as blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate of the two groups were also recorded. Results:The emergence time and duration of PACU stay in the experimental group were (17.19±1.76) minutes and (22.47±2.36) minutes, significantly shortern than in the control group (18.36±2.19) minutes and (23.82±2.62) minutes, the difference was statistically significant ( t values were 2.760, 2.546, P<0.05). 10 minutes after in PACU and out of PACU, the PAED scores, systolic pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate was [7.56±1.86, 4.60±1.19, (108.12±10.19)mmHg, (102.72±8.55) mmHg, (112.91±6.10) times/minute, (106.39±6.75) times/minute, (18.87±1.98) times/minute, (17.49±1.68) times/minute], significantly lower than those in the control group [13.40±1.47, 6.71±2.21, (116.73±14.17)mmHg, (107.62±12.44) mmHg, (121.07±8.07) times/minute, (114.69±5.78) times/minute, (20.96±1.86) times/minute, (18.47±1.63) times/minute], the difference was statistically significant ( t values were 2.162-16.332, P<0.05). Conclusion:Toy and cartoon video combine-assisted admission can reduce the agitation and stable vital signs during recovery from general anesthesia in preschool children.
