The most commonly used anesthetic for general anesthesia in pediatric patients is sevoflurane, an inhalation anesthetic. However, the incidence of emergence agitation after sevoflurane anesthesia in pediatric patients is high, with reports of up to 67%. Remimazolam (Byfavo Inj., Hana Pharm Col, Ltd., Seoul, Korea) has a short context-sensitive half-life of 7.5 minutes, and the time it takes from the end of anesthesia until the patient wakes up is predictable. According to a study by Yang X et al., administering a small amount of remimazolam (0.2 mg/kg) intravenously at the end of general anesthesia using sevoflurane reduced the incidence of emergence agitation. However, very few studies have evaluated the use of remimazolam in general anesthesia in pediatric patients.

| Postoperative pain | Visual analog scale (VAS) is going to be measured after entering the PACU. The VAS is a validated, subjective measure for acute and chronic pain. The VAS consists of a 10cm line, with two end points representing 0 ('no pain') and 10 ('pain as bad as it could possibly be'). | Immediate after entering the PACU, 15 minutes after entering the PACU |
| Incidence of emergence delirium | Emergence delirium measured after entering the PACU | Immediate after entering the PACU, 15 minutes after entering the PACU |
| Adverse events and complications | Adverse events and complications that occur during anesthesia and recovery from anesthesia | during general anesthesia, and recovery after general anesthesia, up to 1 day |
