Sedation MRI - Propofol Versus Propofol-Ketamin in Children

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

Intervention / Treatment

  • Propofol (DRUG)
    Only Propofol titrated for induction, followed by Propofol 10 mg/h as maintenance infusion
  • Ketamine-Propofol (DRUG)
    Propofol titrated plus additional Ketamine 1 mg/kg at induction, followed by Propofol 10 mg/h as maintenance infusion

    Maximum Age: 10
    Age Groups: Child
    Healthy Volunteers: Yes

    Inclusion Criteria:

    * MRT in deep sedation
    * outpatient
    * \> 3 months to \<= 10 years

    Exclusion Criteria:

    * tracheal intubation required

    Primary Outcomes
    • Time from end of MRI until recovery defined as Aldrete Score = 10

    Secondary Outcomes
    • time until demission

    • Postoperative nausea or vomiting

    • noninvasive measurement of cerebral perfusion by means of MRI only in patients scheduled for cerebral MRI

    • Incidence of emergence delirium 1 - 4 hours post anaesthesia
    • Extra Propofol doses and total amount of Propofol required, movement artefacts

    • respiratory and cardiovascular adverse events during sedation, on the average 60 minutes
