Brief Summary
|
Children posted for any surgical procedure may have
unpleasant sensations of nervousness, apprehension and fear. Preoperative anxiety
causes various physiological changes in the
body. The increasing levels of salivary alpha amylase is one of them.This
preoperative anxiety is associated with poor induction outcomes like
prolonged anaesthesia time, increased recovery time. Managing it
on time and identifying children at risk can improve the induction
outcome. Currently there are subjective methods to assess the level of
preoperative anxiety in children like the Modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety
Scale (mYPAS), but not any objective one. So, this study is planned to
assess if salivary alpha amylase levels can correlate with the levels of
preoperative anxiety in children.
The present study will be conducted in the Department of
Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, Government Medical College and Hospital,
Chandigarh-32. A total of 45 children of either sex, aged 2-9 years, undergoing
elective/scheduled surgeries under general anaesthesia will be enrolled after
obtaining written informed consent.
Study design-Prospective, cohort study
Sample size (N)= [(Zα+Zβ)/C]2 + 3. Assuming
90% power and 95% confidence interval, the proposed sample size for the study
is 38. Accounting for a 20% dropout, a sample size of 45 has
been kept.
One day prior to study: A complete pre
anaesthetic evaluation will be done. A written informed consent will
be taken from the parents/guardians and assent from children more than 7 years
of age.At this time mYPAS will be calculated. Children and their
parents will be explained the method of sample collection. Sample will be
collected by cotton swab/ 2 cc syringe/mucus extractor one day prior at a
minimum of 1hour after last meal (T0).
On the day of surgery:The mYPAS of
the child will be noted(T1) in the preoperative area. The second sample
of saliva will be taken. After the sample is taken oral Midazolam
0.3mg/kg will be given 30 minutes before induction.During induction, the method
of induction (IV/inhalational) will be noted. The video of the child will be
made and his ICC score will be noted. Then the surgery will be allowed to
proceed as per standardised institutional protocol.
All the observations will be noted in the prescribed proforma and will
be subjected to appropriate statistical tests to draw inferences between
salivary alpha amylase and preoperative anxiety in children |
