Abstract: Background: This study aimed to prospectively analyze the relationship between screen time and sleep patterns among school-age children, examining the impact of screen exposure on total sleep duration, sleep latency, sleep efficiency, and daytime sleepiness.

Materials & Methods: 90 patients of tonsilitis of both genderswere divided into 3 groups of 30 each. Group I patients were treated with bipolar cautery, group II with diode laser, and group III with classical cold dissection. Parameters such as operative time, intraoperative blood loss, and pain scores (VAS) were compared.

Results: Group I had 19 males and 11 females, group II had 12 males and 18 females and group III had 14 males and 16 females. The mean operative time in group I was 12.4 minutes, in group II was 15.3 minutes and in group III was 24.6 minutes. The mean blood loss was 20.5 ml in group I, 10.5 ml in group II and 60.2 ml in group III. The VAS score was 2.3 in group I, 2.5 in group II and 3.1 in group III. The difference was significant (P< 0.05).

Conclusion: Compared to the traditional dissection approach, both laser tonsillectomy and bipolar tonsillectomy offer certain benefits. When compared to cold knife dissection, they both have shorter operating and anesthetic times, less primary, reactionary, and secondary bleeding, and less post-operative pain.
