Prevalence of Bradycardia After Induction of General Anesthesia and Associated Factors Among Surgical Pediatric Patients. A Prospective Observational Study.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: Heart rate is the main determinant factor of the child's cardiac output in the first year of life. Thus, bradycardia decreases cardiac output leading to fatal cardiac arrhythmias, cardiac arrest, and even death. The objective of this study is to determine the prevalence of bradycardia and its associated factors after induction of general anesthesia among pediatric patients operated at Hawassa University Comprehensive Specialized Hospital (HUCSH). Methods: Prospective observational study was employed at HUCSH by using a systematic random sampling technique. Pediatric surgical patients less than 6 years old were included in the study. Data were entered into Epi data statistical software (version 4.6.0.) and exported to SPSS (version 25.0). Categorical data were analyzed using chi-square statistics, and continuous data were analyzed using Student's Results: The prevalence of bradycardia among 205 pediatric patients included in this study was 19.5%. Preoperative risk of hypoxia, opioids premedication, inhalational induction (halothane), difficult intubation, intraoperative complications, and significant surgical blood loss were independently associated with bradycardia. Conclusion: The prevalence of bradycardia after induction of general anesthesia was 19.5%. Preoperative risk of hypoxia, opioids premedication, inhalational induction (particularly with halothane), difficult intubation, intraoperative complications such as hypoxia, and significant blood loss were significantly associated with bradycardia.
