| Popis: | Introduction: Recently, there has been an increasing need for sedation techniques to reduce anxiety in children undergoing painful diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. Therefore, multiple tactics (oral sedation, Intravenous (IV) sedation) were devised to help practitioners manage such cases. Aim: To determine the efficiency and effects of propofol on the behaviour of anxious children during dental treatment. Materials and Methods: This interventional study was conducted at Damascus University, Damascus, Syria, from August 2018 to September 2020. Total 23 children aged 3 to 6 years who were physically healthy (American Society of Anesthesiologists I (ASA I) and uncooperative (negative or definitely negative according to Frankel’s behaviour scale) were included to determine the effects of intravenous propofol on their behaviour during treatment.
