Comparing two anesthesia methods to reduce vomiting after child eye surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests two types of anesthesia for children having eye muscle (strabismus) surgery to see which one is better at preventing vomiting after the operation. Vomiting after surgery is common and can make recovery harder, so finding a better method could help your child feel better sooner.
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 is scheduled for strabismus (eye alignment) surgery under general anesthesia.
- Your child is in good overall health (classified as ASA I or II).
- Boys and girls are both welcome.
- Your child must not have allergies to the medications used in the study.
- Your child must not have certain heart, lung, brain, liver, or kidney conditions, or have had recent nausea or vomiting before surgery.

This study compares two types of general anesthesia to see which one causes less nausea and vomiting after laparoscopic surgery. If you're having keyhole surgery, this could help you feel better faster after the operation.
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 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 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 types of sedation medicine to see which one is safer for young children during surgery with a numbing block. The goal is to find which medicine causes less breathing trouble.
This study compares two types of anesthesia gas (sevoflurane/dexmedetomidine vs. isoflurane) to see which helps prevent agitation or confusion when children wake up after surgery. It is for children ages 2–7 having certain ear, nose, throat, eye, or urology procedures with an IV and breathing tube.
