A Comparison of the Sedative, Hemodynamic, and Respiratory Effects of Dexmedetomidine and Propofol in Children Undergoing Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Abstract: We compared the sedative, hemodynamic, and respiratory effects of dexmedetomidine and propofol in children undergoing magnetic resonance imaging procedures. Sixty children were randomly distributed into two groups: The dexmedetomidine (D) group received 1 microg/kg initial dose followed by continuous infusion of 0.5 microg.kg(-1).h(-1) and a propofol group (P) received 3 mg/kg initial dose followed by a continuous infusion of 100 microg.kg(-1).min(-1). Inadequate sedation was defined as difficulty in completin… Show more

“…In contrast, other sedatives like propofol and benzodiazepines can cause severe respiratory depression at clinical dosage. Therefore, we used dexmedetomidine and ketamine for sedation because we thought that the continuous infusion of dexmedetomidine and ketamine could preserve self-respiration better than the continuous infusion of propofol or benzodiazepines during operation (26,27). Moreover, in a comparison of dexmedetomidine and propofol for intraoperative sedation, dexmedetomidine showed a slower onset of sedation, but resulted in less pain during the postoperative period due to its analgesicsparing effect (28).…”

“…21 Koroglu reported incidence of desaturation with Propofol during MRI. 22 Upper air way collapsibility is markedly increased in both sleeping and anesthetized children. 23 Propofol and barbiturate can exacerbate upper air way obstruction and increase the risk of respiratory depression/apnoea.…”
