Mediation Role of Perioperative Electroencephalogram Frontal Alpha Asymmetry to Pediatric Emergence Delirium
This study aimed to investigate whether the association between the preoperative anxiety level and emergence delirium involves EEG frontal alpha asymmetry in pediatric patients undergoing ophthalmic surgery under general anesthesia. The investigators hypothesized that EEG frontal alpha asymmetry contributes a significant portion of the preoperative anxiety - emergence delirium association in pediatric patients. Mediation analysis will be performed to estimate the relationships between preoperative anxiety of children (modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale (mYPAS)), EEG frontal alpha asymmetry, and emergence delirium (Pediatric Assessment of Emergence Delirium (PAED) scale).
• Children aged 2-8 year
• Children with an American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status of I-II
• Children who are scheduled to undergo elective ophthalmological requiring general anesthesia
