Oxygen Saturation During Transfer From Operating Room to Post Anesthesia Care Unit After Current Anesthesia Care

To determine the which method of pain relief is better after current anesthesia care.

We hypothesized that in children, the current anesthesia care (combined light general
anesthesia and caudal analgesia) may decrease incidence of intra and or postoperative
de-saturation( SaO2 < %95), the need of oxygen during child's transport to the PACU and
during his stay in the recovery room, compared with children who receive intravenous
narcotics for intra and postoperative pain relief.

Inclusion Criteria:

- 1-6 yr old
