Conditions

Emergence delirium

Interventions

Dose-Finding Group:Using the biased coin sequential method, initial dose 0.7 mg/kg/h. The dose for the next subject is adjusted based on the previous subject's occurrence of emergence delirium (C-CAPD
after ineffective response, the dose is increased by 0.1 mg/kg/h with 100% probability. All children receive concomitant sevoflurane (BIS target 40-60).
Experimental Group (Remimazolam + Sevoflurane):During maintenance of anesthesia, remimazolam is infused intravenously at the 90% effective dose determined from Part 1, along with sevoflurane inhalatio
Control Group (Sevoflurane + Normal Saline):During maintenance of anesthesia, sevoflurane is inhaled (1%-3%, titrated to maintain BIS 40-60) and normal saline of equal volume is infused intravenously
