This study aims to improve how anesthesia care is delivered to children in participating hospitals. Because it includes all children having anesthesia, it may help ensure safer, better care during procedures.
This study tests whether playing music and reducing noise in the operating room can lower the amount of anesthesia and pain medicine needed for children aged 3 to 18 during surgery. It may help children feel more comfortable and recover more smoothly.
This study compares two ways of giving anesthesia to children during planned surgeries: one that starts with an inhaled medicine and switches to an IV medicine, versus using only IV anesthesia from the start. The goal is to see which approach works better and is safer for children.
This study tests a way to help children aged 5-12 feel less anxious before surgery. If successful, it could make the start of anesthesia calmer and more comfortable for your child.
This study tests whether using special brain-monitoring devices during anesthesia can help reduce confusion and agitation that sometimes happens after surgery in children ages 1–6. The goal is to improve recovery by helping doctors manage anesthesia more precisely.
This trial studies whether special brain wave monitoring during anesthesia can help improve children's behavior after surgery. It is for children ages 3 to 10 having certain types of surgery that last more than an hour.
