Dex
patients using dexmedetomidine infusion
|
Drug: Dexmedetomidine
In Group dex, dexmedetomidine infusion will be administered to the patient during the operation. Fentanyl bolus dose will be administered during anesthesia induction in group Fen.
Other Name: Precedex |
Fen
patients using fentanyl for induction
|
Drug: Fentanyl
In Group dex, dexmedetomidine infusion will be administered to the patient during the operation. Fentanyl bolus dose will be administered during anesthesia induction in group Fen.
Other Name: Talinat |
- postoperative pain [ Time Frame: Pain was evaluated at 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 hours postoperatively. ]Postoperative pain level will be measured using the FLACC pain scale (face, legs, activity, cry, consolability). 4 and above will be considered as high pain level, below 4 as low pain level.
- postoperative anxiety [ Time Frame: anxiety was evaluated at 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 hours postoperatively. ]Postoperative anxiety level will be measured using the Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium Scale (PAED). A value of 12 and above will be considered high anxiety, and values below 12 will be considered low anxiety.
