NCT02322983

Brief Summary

Cerebral Palsy induces oral alterations that impact on oral health, requiring dental treatment. The objective of this study was to evaluate the use of conscious sedation with nitrous oxide (N2O) in the control of stress during dental treatment in individuals with Cerebral Palsy.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Heart Rate

    data were collected and participants were followed up during dental care. An expected average of 1 hour.

  • Respiratory Rate

    data were collected and participants were followed up during dental care. An expected average of 1 hour.

  • Venham's Score

    data were collected and participants were followed up during dental care. An expected average of 1 hour.

  • Nitrous oxide and Oxygen Proportion

    data were collected and participants were followed up during dental care. An expected average of 1 hour.

Study Arms (1)

Cerebral Palsy Subjects

EXPERIMENTAL

Use of conscious sedation with nitrous oxide in the control of stress during dental treatment in individuals with Cerebral Palsy

Behavioral: Control of Stress

Interventions

To control stress were measured (at different times: T1, T2, T3 and T4) Venham's Score, Heart Rate, Respiratory Rate, and the titration of gases.

Eligibility Criteria

Age3 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Cerebral Palsy medical diagnosis;
  • Age over 3 years old without distinction by gender;
  • Patients with any clinical patterns of Cerebral Palsy;
  • Patients with caries in at least two molars (primary or permanent), indicating anesthetic use for performing the restorative procedure.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients with chronic respiratory problems (such as chronic bronchitis, COPD) or acute (like flu with nasal congestion and active pneumonia) as these conditions contraindicate the use of N2O;
  • Cerebral Palsy patients with genetic syndromes associated;
  • Patients whose caregivers refused to sign the Instrument of Consent and the Consent of the Use of Conscious Sedation.
