Comparison of Anesthetic Agents in Pediatrics

Comparing anesthetic agents in pediatrics involves evaluating different medications used to keep children asleep and pain-free during procedures. Factors include how quickly they act, how safely they can be used, side effects, and how quickly children recover afterward. Some agents work faster but may have more side effects, while others are gentler but slower. Healthcare providers choose the most appropriate agent based on the child's health, the type of procedure, and the desired balance of effectiveness and safety. The goal is to ensure the child's comfort while minimizing risks during anesthesia.
