Comparison of Desflurane With Sevoflurane for School-age Children in Postoperative Cognitive Function

September 16, 2016 updated by: Yingjie Du, Shengjing Hospital
This study compares desflurane with sevoflurane for school-age children in postoperative cognitive function.

Study Overview

Status

Unknown

Detailed Description

The postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) of school-age children (6-14 age) after operation draw more attention from both society and family. It is well known that, compare with sevoflurane, desflurane could improve cognitive function in elderly patients. But whether Desflurane could improve postoperative cognitive function compare with Sevoflurane for the school-age children, there is no consistent conclusion.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Group Desflurane
Anesthesia maintenance: After endotracheal intubation, patients will be randomized into Desflurane for maintenance. The gas flow rate of Desflurane group is 2 L/min, include 50% O2 and 4~5% Desflurane.
Anesthesia maintenance: After endotracheal intubation, half of the patients will be randomized into Desflurane Group. The gas flow rate of Desflurane group is 2 L/min, include 50% O2 and 4~5% Desflurane.
Active Comparator: Group Sevoflurane
Anesthesia maintenance: After endotracheal intubation, patients will be randomized into sevoflurane for maintenance. The gas flow rate of Sevoflurane group is 2L/ min, include 50%O2 and 1.7-2.0% Sevoflurane.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The incidence of postoperative cognitive dysfunction
Time Frame: Within 7 days after operation
Cognitive function score should be carried out for all children at preoperative 1d, postoperative 2 d, 3d and 7d. If postoperative score compared with preoperative score drop 1 points or more, then postoperative cognitive dysfunction will be recorded.
Within 7 days after operation
