Abstract:
The incidence of pediatric anesthesia emergence delirium (ED) is high, and the potential harm is significant. It can be diagnosed through the pediatric anesthesia emergence delirium scale (PAED). The risk factors of pediatric anesthesia ED include personal, surgical, and anesthetic factors. The anesthesia ED in children can be effectively prevented by relieving preoperative anxiety, optimizing anesthetic strategies, and providing effective postoperative analgesia. Alpha 2 agonists (eg. dexmedetomidine), opioids (eg. fentanyl), propofol, and ketamine have both preventive and therapeutic effects on anesthesia ED in children.
