Cognitive Functioning after Surgery in Middle-aged and Elderly Danish Twins.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Clonidine, an alpha 2-adrenoceptor agonist, has been shown to be effective as a preanesthetic medication in adults. The current study was designed to investigate the efficacy of two doses of oral clonidine as a premedicant preceding oral atropine in children. METHODS:In a prospective, randomized, double-bli...
