Article Synopsis
- This study evaluated the use of dexmedetomidine, an anxiolytic and analgesic, in pediatric strabismus surgery to prevent complications like emergence agitation (EA), postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), and pain.
- The analysis included nine randomized controlled trials and found that dexmedetomidine significantly reduced the incidence of EA, PONV, and the need for pain relief compared to a placebo.
- Continuous infusion of dexmedetomidine was more effective than other administration methods, and it also lowered the risk of the oculocardiac reflex, showing its potential benefits in improving postoperative recovery in children.
