This study aimed to assess the efficacy of propofol and fentanyl in preventing EA and to compare their associated complications or side effects. Methods: This prospective randomized observational comparative study was conducted at Dhaka Medical College Hospital from July 2013 to June 2014. The study aimed to evaluate the effects of propofol and fentanyl on EA in children aged 18 to 72 months undergoing circumcision, herniotomy, and polypectomy operations. Ninety children were included in the study, with 45 in each group. Patients with psychological or neurological disorders were excluded. Various parameters including age, sex, weight, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) class, duration of anesthesia, Saturation of Peripheral Oxygen (SPO2), heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR), Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium (PAED) score, duration of post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) stay, incidence of laryngospasm, nausea, vomiting, and rescue drug requirement were compared between the two groups. Results: Age, sex, weight, ASA class, and duration of anesthesia were comparable between the two groups. Perioperative SpO2 and HR were similar in both groups. However, the PAED score was significantly higher in the fentanyl group during all follow-ups except at 30 minutes postoperatively. The mean duration of PACU stay was significantly longer in the fentanyl group. Although the incidence of laryngospasm was higher in the fentanyl group, it was not statistically significant. Conversely, nausea or vomiting was significantly higher in the fentanyl group. The requirement for rescue drugs was significantly higher in the fentanyl group compared to the propofol group. Conclusion: Both propofol and fentanyl were effective in preventing emergence agitation in pediatric patients undergoing various surgical procedures under sevoflurane anesthesia. However, propofol demonstrated a better safety profile with fewer incidences of nausea, vomiting, and rescue drug requirements compared to fentanyl.展开更多

文摘星基广播式自动相关监视(ADS-B,automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast)系统是一种新型的航空器监视技术,在未来空中交通管理系统中具有广阔的应用前景。为了深入研究星基ADS-B系统中航空器到卫星的空天链路通信性能,将专业软件Matlab和STK(system tool kit)有效联合,构建符合国际标准的星基ADS-B空天链路完整模型;通过离散事件动态交互模拟ADS-B消息的发送与接收全过程,最后统计得出体现星基ADS-B空天链路通信性能的消息识别概率(POI,possibility of identify)、消息检测概率(POD,possibility of detective)、信号接收功率、信号冲突概率、卫星覆盖范围等指标。仿真结果表明,随着区域内航空器数量上升,POI、POD下降,消息冲突概率上升。
