Figure 1 (A) Pediatric anesthesia emergence delirium (PAED) scale in post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) stay. The laryngeal mask airway group (group L) showed a lower PAED scale score than the endotracheal tube group (group E) at 10, 20, and 25 min after arrival in PACU. (B) Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability (FLACC) scale in post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) stay. FLACC scale score was lower in laryngeal mask airway group (group L) than in the endotracheal tube group (group E) at 20, 25, and 30 min after surgery. P<0.05, indicated by *, denotes a statistically significant difference, compared with the other group. PAED – pediatric anesthesia emergence delirium; PACU – post-anesthesia care unit; LMA – laryngeal mask airway; ETT – endotracheal tube.
