Strabismus surgery for children is a very common procedure, with a high incidence of emergence delirium in the recovery room. Pain is often implicated in delirium. The primary aim of this study is to determine whether a single, intraoperative dose of methadone for outpatient ambulatory pediatric strabismus surgery reduces postoperative delirium.
1,057 studies on the registry are indexed under Delirium; 238 are open to participants now.
