Perioperative clinical practice recommendations for pediatric tonsillectomy: a systematic review
CONCLUSIONS: Acetaminophen, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and steroids are recommended in the perioperative management of pediatric tonsillectomy. Future CPG should further clarify the safe use of opioids based on severity of obstructive sleep apnea and in the context of opioid-sparing techniques, such as dexmedetomidine, high-dose dexamethasone, and gabapentinoids.STUDY REGISTRATION: PROSPERO (CRD42021253374); first submitted 18 June 2021.PMID:38182827 | DOI:10.1007/s12630-023-02668-z
