Lactium premedication to see if it prevents emergence agitation after adenotonsillectomy
A preoperative dose of Lactium is tested to see if it prevents emergence agitation in children after adenotonsillectomy.

Oral vs IV Magnesium for Emergence Delirium in Children after Adenotonsillectomy
This trial tests whether giving magnesium by mouth before surgery or by IV during surgery can reduce emergence delirium in children aged 4–7 undergoing adenotonsillectomy with sevoflurane anesthesia.
-
Intranasal dexmedetomidine‑esketamine for pain relief after adenoid and tonsil surgery in children
This trial will test whether giving children aged 3–7 a combined dexmedetomidine and esketamine nasal dose reduces pain after adenoid and tonsil surgery.

Ultrasound-guided glossopharyngeal and maxillary nerve blocks for pain control after adenotonsillectomy
Doctors will test whether adding ultrasound-guided glossopharyngeal and maxillary nerve blocks to usual pain control reduces pain after adenotonsillectomy in children aged 5–13.

Oral melatonin versus nebulized dexmedetomidine to reduce emergence agitation after adenotonsillectomy in children
We will test whether giving oral melatonin or nebulized dexmedetomidine before anesthesia better prevents children aged 3–7 from becoming agitated as they wake after adenotonsillectomy.
