Comparing two anesthesia drugs for kids' tonsil surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Ear, nose & throat clinical trials.
This study compares two newer sedation drugs (remimazolam and ciprofol) to see which one better prevents breathing or airway problems during and after tonsil surgery in children.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must be 2 to 12 years old.

This study compares two sedative medications, ciprofol and propofol, for children (ages 3–11) during tonsil or adenoid removal surgery. It uses special brain-wave monitors (IoC1 and IoC2) to see which drug provides safer, more stable sedation.
This study tests three different medicines to help young children relax before surgery to remove their tonsils and adenoids. It aims to find which medicine works best and is safest for kids ages 2 to 5.
This study compares two anesthesia drugs — remimazolam and propofol — to see which one has a better effect on children's brain development after surgery. If your child is 3–6 years old and having a non-brain, non-heart surgery, they may be able to join.
This study compares two different anesthesia medicines (propofol and remimazolam) to see which one is safer for children's breathing during surgery. It may be a good fit if your child is having a planned surgery that can be done with a numbing shot instead of a breathing tube.
This trial tests a newer anesthesia drug (remimazolam) combined with alfentanil against a standard drug (propofol) combined with alfentanil for people having chest surgery. The goal is to see which approach works better and is safer.
This study tests two different sedative medicines to see which one helps children aged 6 to 12 breathe more safely during a gastroscopy (a scope test to look at the stomach). It compares a new drug, esketamine, with a combination of remazolam and propofol to find the one with fewer breathing problems.
