Comparing Two Anesthesia Drugs for Young Children
Part of Ear, nose & throat clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child is 3 to 6 years old.
- The surgery is not on the brain, heart, or liver (example: hernia repair or tonsil removal).
- Anesthesia will last at least 30 minutes.
- Your child is generally healthy (ASA class I or II) and not going to the ICU after surgery.
- No known condition that affects brain development (like cerebral palsy or autism).

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 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.
This trial compares the anesthesia medicines remimazolam and propofol during major surgery to see how patients do afterward. It may help guide which anesthetic is safer or leads to better recovery in higher-risk patients.
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 trial studies brain activity (EEG) in children receiving remimazolam, a type of anesthesia. It aims to understand how the drug affects the brain during surgery.
This study compares two ways of giving anesthesia to children undergoing routine surgery. Researchers want to see if switching from one anesthetic gas to IV (intravenous) medication works safely and effectively.
