Observational StudyAssociation between emergence delirium and brain status parameters in children undergoing general anesthesia: A prospective observational study.
Emergence delirium is a common postoperative neurological complication in children after general anesthesia. There is no valid tool to predict emergence delirium. Wavelet index, pain threshold index, anxiety index, and comfort index are real-time brain status parameters extracted from the electroencephalogram, which have recently been developed. The aim is to evaluate the association between real-time brain status parameters during emergence and emergence delirium in children undergoing general anesthesia. ⋯ AnXi and CFi might be used to guide anesthesiologists to identify and intervene ED in children.
