Evaluation of the Postoperative Agitation Prevention and Analgesic Efficacy of Perioperative Dexmedetomidine Infusion in a Pediatric Patient Group to Undergo Dental Treatment

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
Dexmedetomidine is a drug known for its pain-relieving and restlessness-reducing effects. The purpose of this run is to use the association between this use during surgery and the attrition of post-operative pain and discomfort. In the research, laboratory and monitoring results will be obtained before, during and after the operation. Postoperative patient complaints will be evaluated at the postoperative service visit. This study is decided on a completely voluntary basis.

What is the study measuring?
-----------------
Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| postoperative pain | Postoperative pain level will be measured using the FLACC pain scale (face, legs, activity, cry, consolability). 4 and above will be considered as high pain level, below 4 as low pain level. | Pain was evaluated at 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 hours postoperatively. | 
| postoperative anxiety | Postoperative anxiety level will be measured using the Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium Scale (PAED). A value of 12 and above will be considered high anxiety, and values below 12 will be considered low anxiety. | anxiety was evaluated at 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 hours postoperatively. |
