Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Sedation Threshold

    During the 10-minute infusion of propofol, children will be presented with pictures at 5-second intervals and asked to name the picture. They will be asked to name each picture (e.g., cat, tree, pencil, etc.). A valid response is naming of the picture within 5 seconds, either correctly or incorrectly.The important response measure is whether the child is awake enough to perform the naming task.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Memory Threshold

    1 year

Study Arms (2)

children going under sedation with propofol

EXPERIMENTAL

Children who will undergo sedation as part of their clinical management and give them a memory encoding task during propofol infusion to measure the effects of sedation. The mere task of naming a picture will encode that picture into memory. When the anesthesia has worn off (at approximately 1 hour later), children will be given a memory recognition task to measure the amnesic effects of propofol. measure the amnesic effects of propofol.

children not going under sedation

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

A control group of children of similar age and undergoing similar minor therapeutic procedures will be recruited to perform memory.

Other: memory test
