Evaluation of prevention of emergence delirium and analgesic effect of magnesium on
children

The Effect of Magnesium Supplementation During General Anesthesia on the Quality of Postoperative Recovery in Children

Emergence Delirium

Children < 8 years old who scheduled for elective opthalmic surgery are randomly assigned
to Magnesium (Mg) group and control group. Before anesthetic induction, modified Yale
Preoperative Anxiety Scale (m-YPAS) is assessed. Routine anesthetic induction is
performed, and neuromuscular blocker is not used. Laryngeal mask airway is inserted and
controlled ventilation is started.

In Mg group, Mg of 30 mg/kg is administered for 10 minutes and then continuously infused
(10mg/kg/hr) until 5 minutes before surgery end. In control group, the similar volume of
saline is infused.

Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium (PAED) scale and pain score (Modified Children's
Hospital of Eastern Ontario Pain Scale, CHEOPS) will be measured immediately after and 30
minutes after surgery.
