Brief Summary:
Preventing emergent delirium in pediatric ambulatory surgery through preoperative use of intra-nasal Dexmedetomidine and oral Midazolam.
Detailed Description:
Pediatric ambulatory patients will randomly be allocated to one of two groups. Group A which will receive Dexmedetomidine intra-nasally at a dose of 1 mcg/kg, approximately 15-25 minutes before entering the operating room or Group B which will receive Midazolam orally at a dose of 0.5 mg/kg (with a maximum dose of 20 mg), approximately 10-15 minutes before entering the operating room. Each subject will receive a Drug Acceptance scale, and Parental Separation Anxiety Scale (PSAS) mask Acceptance Scale to identify the differences in markers associated with pediatric delirium. End tidal Sevoflurane value during the surgery and at the time when patient leaves the OR, amount and dose of oral/rectal acetaminophen given in PACU, child's behavior for 48 hours post-operatively, and documented intake of oral analgesics will be collected to identify the reduced need for post-operative analgesia and behaviors associated with extended pediatric delirium.
