Abstract
Pediatric ophthalmic test requires meticulous observation and precise measurement. However, children are unable to actively cooperate with the test. If they were forced to receive the examinations, it is difficult to deliver accurate diagnosis and treatment, and cause negative influence upon physical and mental health. Consequently, sedation technique plays an extremely vital role in pediatric eye examinations. This study was designed to summarize the application of chloral hydrate in pediatric eye examination and propose different methods of medicine administration for children of varying ages, aiming to improve the effect of sedation. In addition, the feasibility of use of dexmedetomidine, which had been proven to be effective in pediatric sedation examination, into pediatric ophthalmic sedation examination was evaluated, thereby offering more options for the development of pediatric ocular sedation test.
期刊介绍:
Eye science was founded in 1985. It is a national medical journal supervised by the Ministry of Education of the People's Republic of China, sponsored by Sun Yat-sen University, and hosted by Sun Yat-sen University Zhongshan Eye Center (in October 2020, it was changed from a quarterly to a monthly, with the publication number: ISSN: 1000-4432; CN: 44-1119/R). It is edited by Ge Jian, former dean of Sun Yat-sen University Zhongshan Eye Center, Liu Yizhi, director and dean of Sun Yat-sen University Zhongshan Eye Center, and Lin Haotian, deputy director of Sun Yat-sen University Zhongshan Eye Center, as executive editor. It mainly reports on new developments and trends in the field of ophthalmology at home and abroad, focusing on basic research in ophthalmology, clinical experience, and theoretical knowledge and technical operations related to epidemiology. It has been included in important databases at home and abroad, such as Chemical Abstract (CA), China Journal Full-text Database (CNKI), China Core Journals (Selection) Database (Wanfang), and Chinese Science and Technology Journal Database (VIP).
