Brief Summary
Modification(s)  
Comparing the effects of nevbullised midazolam vs nebulised fentanyl as a premedication in 2 to 8 years of children undergoing the general anesthesia. As children’s are more afraid of invasive procedure and hospital environment, we emphasise on the smooth parental separation and preparation of child’s for the surgery which won’t cause traumatic experience to child.
