Dexmedetomidine Use In The Pediatric Postoperative Patient With Emergence Agitation: A Systemic Review, Elizabeth Kittredge
Master's Theses, Dissertations, Graduate Research and Major Papers Overview
Emergence Agitation is a frequent complication in the pediatric postoperative population; with up to 80% incidence (Stamper, Hawks, Taicher, Bonta & Brandon, 2014). These patients will present with crying, overexcitement, thrashing, agitation and is seen within the first 30 minutes of emergence of general anesthesia (Mohkamkar, Farhoudie, Alam-Sahebpour, Mousavi, Khani & Shamomhammadi, 2014). Dexmedetomidine, a selective alpha 2 agonist, reduces norepinephrine output, initiates firing of inhibitory neurons such as the gama aminobutric acid system and reduces release of substance P and other catecholamines. These actions provide the patient with sedation, analgesia, and anesthesia (Nagelhout & Elisha, 2018). Due to the …

Many root canal preparation techniques and instruments produce apically extruded materials to a certain extent depending on the preparation system adopted. The extrusion of debris from the apical foramen during chemomechanical preparation may cause postoperative pain and failure of endodontic treatment. Objective: This study evaluates the differences in the apical extrusion of debris and calcium hydroxide (CH) during endodontic instrumentation by using Reciproc Blue (RB), WaveOne Gold (WOG), and F6 Skytaper (F6). Methods: Six experimental study groups (n = 13) were established. The root canal procedures for all groups were prepared with different methods: Group I: One Shape (OS) instrumentation, …
