Comparing two pain medicines for children after urologic surgery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study compares two pain medications used during anesthesia for children having urologic surgery to see which one causes fewer episodes of confusion or agitation after waking up and helps recovery go more smoothly.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must be between 7 and 12 years old.
- Your child's surgery must be urologic (on the urinary tract or reproductive organs) and planned under general anesthesia with a breathing tube placed in the airway.
- Your child should be in good overall health (no serious medical conditions).
- Your child cannot have had a recent respiratory infection (like a cold or flu) in the last 3 weeks.
- Your child must not have any known allergies to the medications used in the study, and cannot be on chronic sedatives or pain medications.
- A parent or guardian must give written permission, and the child must agree to participate.

This study compares two medicines to see which works better at preventing agitation and restlessness when children wake up from surgery with a common anesthetic. The goal is to help children recover more calmly and comfortably.
This study tests a way to reduce post-surgery agitation (confusion or restlessness) in babies aged 3 to 12 months who need anesthesia for a procedure. The goal is to make recovery calmer and safer for your baby.
This study tests whether giving children a lollipop after surgery helps prevent confusion and agitation as they wake up from anesthesia. Emergence delirium—when children are disoriented and upset after anesthesia—is common, and the researchers want to see if this simple comfort measure helps.
This trial compares different medicines given by mouth before surgery to see which works best to help children relax and have less pain. If your child is having day surgery, this study might help find the best pre-surgery medicine for them.
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 common pain medicines—morphine and oxycodone—given through a PCA pump after surgery in children. The goal is to see which one causes less nausea and vomiting, so your child can recover more comfortably.
