Özet
Background: The aim of this study was to assess the effect of magnesium on the incidence of emergence agitation in preschool-aged children undergoing adenotonsillectomy with sevoflurane anaesthesia. Patients & Methods: 42 children, aged between 3 to 7 years, were randomised into either group M (magnesium, n=26) or group C (saline for controls, n=26). Anesthesia was induced by mask with 8 % sevoflurane in nitrous oxide and oxygen. Magnesium 15 mg.kg(-1) or saline was administered in about 20 minutes after the endotracheal intubation intraoperatively. All patients were ventilated with 60% nitrous oxide and sevoflurane was given at 1-1.5 MAC in oxygen. Mean blood pressure, heart rate, pulse oximetry, eye-opening time, extubation time were recorded in the operating room. In recovery, patients were evaluated using modified Aldrete score, the Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium (PAED) scale and the Oucher visual analog Pain Scale. Postoperative nause, vomiting, and airway complication and first analgesic application were recorded. Results: Time to eye opening, tracheal extubation, and first analgesic administration were not different between the groups. There were no statistically significant differences in mean arterial pressure and heart rate, pain score and PAED peak scale between the groups (p > 0.05). The modified Aldrete score was significantly lower in the magnesium group (p=0.004). There was no statistically significant difference between the groups regarding side effects. Conclusions: We conclude that the administration of magnesium 15 mg.kg(-1) did not have any significant effect in reducing the incidence of emergence agitation in children undergoing adenotonsillectomy under sevoflurane anaesthesia.
