Recovery after propofol anesthesia in children
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at how children recover from anesthesia when they receive propofol through an IV during surgery. It compares recovery in toddlers (ages 3-5) and older children (ages 6-12) to help improve anesthesia care for kids.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must be between 3 and 12 years old.
- Your child should be in good overall health (classified as ASA I or II).
- The surgery must be planned (elective) and last between 30 and 120 minutes.
- Propofol given through an IV (intravenous) line will be the main anesthesia method.
- Your child cannot have neurological disorders, developmental delays, liver or kidney problems, or be above the 95th percentile for weight.
- Your child cannot be taking sedative medications (medicines that cause drowsiness).

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 compares different anesthesia approaches to see which one helps children wake up more calmly after urogenital surgery (surgery on the urinary or reproductive system). Researchers want to find the best way to reduce agitation and confusion as children wake up from anesthesia.
This study compares two ways of giving anesthesia through an IV during surgery to keep you asleep, and looks at how they affect your recovery and pain control after surgery. It is for older adults having non-heart surgery that will last at least one hour.
This trial compares recovery after two types of general anesthesia: one given through an IV (propofol) and one inhaled as a gas. It aims to see which approach leads to a smoother recovery for people having non-cardiac surgery.
This study looks at how the anesthetic drug propofol works in older adults during planned surgeries. The goal is to find the right dose for safe and effective anesthesia.
This study compares two ways of giving anesthesia to children under 10 during surgery, with a focus on how the child wakes up and breathes when the breathing tube is removed. It may help doctors choose safer, smoother anesthesia for pediatric surgeries.
