Summary

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of lollipop administration after surgery in reducing emergence agitation in pediatric patients undergoing anesthesia with sevoflurane at RS Ngoerah.

Emergence agitation is a common condition in children after general anesthesia, characterized by restlessness, confusion, and distress during recovery. This study investigates whether providing a lollipop as a simple, non-pharmacological intervention can help reduce the incidence and severity of agitation.

Pediatric patients undergoing surgery with sevoflurane anesthesia will be observed postoperatively, and their level of agitation will be assessed using standardized evaluation methods. The results of this study are expected to provide a safe, practical, and easily applicable approach to improve postoperative recovery in children.

Conditions

  • Emergence Agitation

Interventions

OTHER

Lollipop

This study is a prospective, parallel-group, randomized controlled trial. Pediatric patients undergoing surgery under sevoflurane anesthesia will be randomly allocated in a 1:1 ratio to either the intervention group (lollipop administration during the immediate postoperative period) or the control group (standard care). Randomization will be performed using a computer-generated sequence, with allocation concealment as appropriate. Outcome assessors will evaluate emergence agitation using standardized scales. The primary endpoint is the incidence and severity of emergence agitation. Secondary endpoints include recovery time and postoperative comfort.
