Interventions
40 children between 2 and 10 years of ASA I-II were randomized and they received caudal anesthesia under general anesthesia. Patients underwent the application of caudal block in addition with saline and 1 mL/kg bupivacaine 0.25%. In the postoperative period, Group C (n=20) was given 5mL saline and Group M (n=20) was given 0.30 mg/kg rectal midazolam diluted with 5mL saline. Sedation scale and postoperative pain scale (CHIPPS) of the patients were evaluated. The patients were observed for their analgesic need, first analgesic time, and adverse effects for 24 hours.
