Summary

This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of intranasal Dexmedetomidine sedation at Dose of 2 mcg/kg and 4 mcg/kg in Children Undergoing MRI at Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital

Detailed description

Ninety-four pediatric subjects who would undergo MRI with sedation were recruited. Subjects aged between 1-10 years old, ASA I-II, weighed between 1-30 kg were included in this study and assigned into two groups randomly. One group received 2 mcg/kg (IND2 group) and the other group received 4 mcg/kg (IND 4 group) of intranasal dexmedetomidine. Randomization was done by the third party, who was not participated in the data collection, by using randomization tool from www.randomizer.org. Dose of intranasal dexmedetomidine for each participant was concealed using closed envelope and was opened preprocedure by the second party who prepared the sedation drugs. The doctor, who gave sedation drug to the patient and recorded the data, was also blinded. All patients were blinded to data collection. Patients were allowed to drink clear fluid until 2 hours and required to fast for 6 hours before the procedure. Baseline heart rate, SpO2 was recorded premedication. Subjects in IND 2 and IND 4 group received 2 mcg/kg and 4 mcg/kg intranasal dexmedetomidine. Intranasal drugs were given 45 minutes before the MRI procedure through both nostrils using a 1 mL syringe. Patient was maintained in supine position for 1-2 minutes to maximize absorption. After the patient was sedated, peripheral intravenous access was performed. The level of sedation was assessed using RSS. Heart rate, oxygen saturation, and RSS are recorded every 10 minutes until the procedure was done. After the target sedation has been reached, MRI started immediately. If the sedation target was not reached and/or the child moved, 0.5 mg/kg rescue dose of propofol would be given. After completing the MRI procedure, the patient was then transferred to the recovery room to record the recovery time. Outpatients were allowed to go home when they reached Aldrete score of 9-10.
