NCT01519154

Brief Summary

Children \< 10 years of age often need deep sedation or anaesthesia to allow elective diagnostic magnetic resonance imaging; standard routine protocols are

  1. 1.propofol induction without other sedative (Propofol much as needed) or hypnotic drugs and propofol infusion 10 mg/kg h
  2. 2.propofol induction with ketamine 1 mg /kg (little repetitive Propofol doses as needed) and propofol infusion 5 mg / kg h
  3. 3.reduces recovery time compared to propofol mono sedation
  4. 4.combination of ketamine-propofol increases incidence of Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) compared to propofol mono sedation
  5. 5.combination of ketamine-propofol increases global cerebral blood flow and changes regional distribution of cerebral perfusion compared to propofol mono sedation
