Meta Analysis Comparative StudyLower incidence of emergence agitation in children after propofol anesthesia compared with sevoflurane: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
Emergence agitation (EA) from general anesthesia has been reported as an adverse effect of sevoflurane in children. We describe a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials that compared the incidence of EA between children who underwent sevoflurane anesthesia and those who underwent propofol anesthesia. ⋯ Our meta-analysis demonstrated that EA in children is less likely to occur after propofol anesthesia compared with sevoflurane anesthesia.
