Abstract

Background: Sedation of children is always necessary for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). General anesthesia may be recommended for infants and small children to protect the airway or in children who have previously failed sedation. Our practice has been to use intermittent administration of small doses of propofol.

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the anesthesia records of all children who underwent sedation for MRI between March 2004 and March 2007.

Results: A total of 120 children underwent sedation for MRI. Few adverse events (respiratory 3%, movement 8%) and no complications occurred during sedation. Almost all of the procedures (99%) were completed successfully.

Conclusions: Our experience demonstrates that intermittent administration of small doses of propofol by experienced personnel for MRI can be used safely and effectively in pediatric patients.

间歇小剂量异丙酚对接受磁共振成像的儿科患者的镇静作用。
背景:儿童镇静是磁共振成像(MRI)的必要条件。全身麻醉可推荐用于婴幼儿,以保护气道或以前镇静失败的儿童。我们的做法是间歇性地使用小剂量的异丙酚。方法:回顾性分析2004年3月至2007年3月间所有接受镇静治疗的儿童的MRI麻醉记录。结果:120名儿童接受了镇静MRI检查。镇静期间不良事件极少(呼吸3%,运动8%),无并发症发生。几乎所有的手术(99%)都成功完成。结论:我们的经验表明,由经验丰富的人员间歇给药小剂量异丙酚进行MRI可以安全有效地用于儿科患者。
