Official title
The Effect of Intramuscular Dexmedetomidine on Emergence Agitation in Children Undergoing With or Without Tube Insertion Under General Anesthesia
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The investigators are inviting your child to participate in this research study because your child is having myringotomy (putting a tiny incision in the eardrum with or without tube insertion) under general anesthesia. The purpose of this study is to determine whether a single injection of Dexmedetomidine (study medication) decreases the frequency of awaking from anesthesia frightened or agitated in children having myringotomy surgery as compared to those children who receive placebo (sterile saltwater).
