Brief Summary

Increasing evidences suggest that dexmedetomidine Pharmacokinetic are different in children. We performed a up-down sequential allocation study to determine the ED50 for rescue sedation following sedation failures in children and to investigate age-related differences in the rescue sedation with dexmedetomidine.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The median effect dose of intranasal dexmedetomidine

    Sedation status was evaluated by a attending anesthesiologists every 5-10 min with a 6-point sedation scale, which was modified from the Modified Observer Assessment of Alertness and Sedation Scale (MOAA/S).successful sedation was defined as an MOAA/S of between 0 and 3

    up to 1 hours after MRI scaning

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • sedation induction time

    up to 30 min after rescue drug administration

  • Wake -up time

    up to 4 hours after rescue drug administration

Other Outcomes (3)

  • heart rate

    baseline, before and 15 , 60, 75, 90 min after rescue drug administration

  • non-invasive systolic blood pressure

    baseline, before and 15 , 60, 75, 90 min after rescue drug administration

  • Oxyhemoglobin desaturation

    baseline and four hours after rescue medicine administration

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Subjects stratified into four groups according to age: 1-6 months (Group 1), 7-12 months (Group 2),13-24 months (Group 3), 26-36 months (Group 4).

Drug: intranasal dexmedetomidine

25-36 months (Group 4)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Subjects stratified into four groups according to age: 1-6 months (Group 1), 7-12 months (Group 2),13-24 months (Group 3), 26-36 months (Group 4).

Drug: intranasal dexmedetomidine

Interventions

Children who were not adequately sedated ( no evidence of adequate sedation within 30 min after administration of Initial dose of chloral hydrate) received a bolus of intranasal dexmedetomidine which adjusted by the "Dixon up-and-down method for rescue sedation. The first child received 0.8mcg/Kg of intranasal dexmedetomidine dose (100mcg/ml), and the dose interval was set at 0.1mcg/Kg.
