This trial tests if a steroid medicine (dexamethasone) plus special brain monitoring can lower the chance of throwing up or feeling sick after surgery to remove tonsils and adenoids in children aged 2 to 8.
This study tests a pain medicine called oxycodone for children aged 1 to 6 years who are having surgery for an undescended testicle (cryptorchidism). The goal is to see how well it controls pain after surgery.
This trial checks if a simple monitor reading (peripheral perfusion index) can help doctors know if a numbing shot (caudal block) will work well for children having belly or pelvic surgery. It may lead to better pain control during and after surgery.
