Introduction: perioperative anxiety in children may lead to psychological and physiological side effects. Clonidine is in increasing use in the pediatric population as an anxiolytic, sedative, and analgesic because of its central alpha2-adrenergic agonist effect. Our study aimed to evaluate the effect of clonidine in the prevention of perioperative children´s anxiety.

Nose to Brain Delivery of Transferrin conjugated PLGA nanoparticles for clonidine.

Int J Biol Macromol

December 2023

Department of Biotechnology, Jaypee Institute of Information Technology, Noida, UP, India. Electronic address:

The present work focuses on the development of surface modified transferrin PLGA nanoparticles loaded with clonidine for nose to brain delivery. The CLD-Tf-PLGA-NPs were developed using double emulsification, followed by solvent evaporation and characterization. Particle size, PDI and Zeta potential of the nanoparticles was 199.

Background: Preoperative anxiety in pediatric patients can worsen postoperative outcomes and delay discharge. Drugs aimed at reducing preoperative anxiety and facilitating postoperative recovery are available; however, their effects on postoperative recovery from propofol-remifentanil anesthesia have not been studied in preschool-aged children. Thus, we aimed to investigate the effects of three sedative premedications on postoperative recovery from total intravenous anesthesia in children aged 2-6 years.

Cardiorespiratory Response to Sedative Premedication in Preschool Children: A Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing Midazolam, Clonidine, and Dexmedetomidine.

J Perianesth Nurs

June 2023

Department of Surgical and Perioperative Sciences, Anesthesiology and Intensive Care Medicine (Sunderbyn), Umeå University, Umeå, Sweden.

Purpose: Sedative premedication in children may negatively impact their cardiorespiratory status during the perioperative course, and no clear consensus exists on the optimal premedication treatment for pediatric patients. The objective was to compare the perioperative cardiorespiratory responses to sedation using three different sedative premedication regimens in preschool children scheduled for surgery with total intravenous anesthesia.

Design: A single-center randomized controlled trial.
