Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Assess efficacy of Dexmedetomidine & Propofol in Pediatric Emergence delirium undergoing General Anaesthesia.  To compare the efficacy of dexmedetomidine(0.5mcg/kg I.V) compared against that of propofol (1mg/kg I.V) post extubation in pediatric emergence delirium at PACU. 
Comparator Agent  comparison of efficacy of Dexmedetomidine against Propofol for the treatment of Pediatric Delirium Emergence  On completion of surgery, LMA/ ET will be removed while the patients were deeply anesthetized & then the patients will be transferred to the PACU once a spontaneous respiratory pattern is observed after extubation or after removal of LMA following general anaesthesia. Thereafter, random number envelope will be opened to assign the patients to either DG or PG group. The patients in DG group will receive, DEXMEDETOMIDINE (0.5 mcg.kg-1) bolus over 2-3sec. whereas those with PG group will receive 1 mg.kg−1 propofol bolus dose. At postanesthetic care unit (PACU), the primary outcome will be the pediatric anesthesia emergence delirium (PAED) score after treatment & the recovery time using Aldrete score, and the secondary outcome will be the adverse events.

Brief Summary   The various studies conducted in different set up in which the comparison for the efficacy of Dexmedetomidine & Propofol was established in the treatment of Pediatric Emergence Delirium undergoing General Anaesthesia, concluded that both the drugs decreased the incidence of Emergence Delirium. However, the studies have been inconclusive in determining a better modality in other countries. Therefore, such studies need relevant data & further extrapolation in the Indian subcontinent.
