Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study Clinical Trial[Nasal ketamine compared with nasal midazolam in premedication in pediatrics].
To compare the efficacy and side effects of midazolam and ketamine administered nasally for pediatric premedication. ⋯ The nasal route is adequately accepted by children. Both drugs are effective by this route and sedation is rapid. Time until postanesthetic recovery is similar with both drugs. The doses used have wide safety margins.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study Clinical Trial[Comparative study of sevoflurane and nitrous oxide versus halothane and nitrous oxide in pediatric anesthesia: efficacy and hemodynamic characteristics during induction].
To study the efficacy, side effects and hemodynamics of anesthetic induction in pediatric patients using sevoflurane and nitrous oxide or halothane and nitrous oxide. ⋯ Inhaled sevoflurane in 60% nitrous oxide provides rapid but gentle anesthetic induction, with hemodynamic stability and a low incidence of airway complications. Sevoflurane is therefore a reasonable alternative to halothane for pediatric surgery.
