Modified Observer's Assessment of Alertness/Sedation Scale, MOAA/SThe entire duration of anesthesia:From the start of drug administration for induction until the patient's awakening.Using the modified MOAA/S scoring table(ranging from 5-0) to evaluate if the sedation is successful. 5 points:Respond quickly to names spoken in a normal tone 4 points:Showing a drowsy reaction to names spoken in a normal tone 3 points:Only react after loudly and/or repeatedly calling the name 2 points:Response immediately after slight stimulation or shaking 1point:Response only occurs after compression of the trapezius muscle that causes pain 0 point:No response after compression of the trapezius muscle

Using the modified MOAA/S scoring table(ranging from 5-0) to evaluate if the sedation is successful. 5 points:Respond quickly to names spoken in a normal tone 4 points:Showing a drowsy reaction to names spoken in a normal tone 3 points:Only react after loudly and/or repeatedly calling the name 2 points:Response immediately after slight stimulation or shaking 1point:Response only occurs after compression of the trapezius muscle that causes pain 0 point:No response after compression of the trapezius muscle

Time frame: The entire duration of anesthesia:From the start of drug administration for induction until the patient's awakening.

Population: The infant group was terminated prematurely due to the unknown safety dose boundary.
