Popis: BACKGROUND The perioperative habits contemplate showing that kids are in more danger of encountering fierce sedative enlistment and unfriendly social sequelae. In paediatric sedation, decent premedication is fundamental to lessen tension and disturbance in youngsters. Parental partition and odd operating room environment as a rule bring about blustery acceptance while giving general sedation. Narcotic premedication is vital for making kids quiet and cooperative in a weird environment. Our study was done to compare the efficacy of midazolam 0.5 mg / kg and triclofos sodium 100 mg / kg as oral premedications in children undergoing elective surgery. METHODS In this prospective randomised comparative study, sixty children posted for elective surgery were enrolled. The patients were randomly divided into midazolam group (Group M) and triclofos sodium group (Group T) of thirty each. Group M received oral midazolam 0.5 mg / kg 30 min before induction, and Group T received oral triclofos sodium 100 mg / kg 60 min before induction. All children were evaluated for level of sedation after premedication, behaviour at the time of separation from parents and at the time of mask placement for induction of anaesthesia. RESULTS Oral midazolam showed satisfactory sedation in children after premedication when compared to oral triclofos (P = 0.003). Both the drugs had a successful separation from parents, and the children were very cooperative during induction. No adverse effects attributable to the premedicants were seen. CONCLUSIONS Oral midazolam is better than triclofos sodium as a sedative anxiolytic in the paediatric population.
