Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

An increasing number of studies have reported the use of dexmedetomidine in clinical practice. However, few studies have reported on the intranasal use of dexmedetomidine in radiological procedures The aim of this work is to compare the efficacy and safety of intranasal dexmedetomidine and intranasal midazolam in pediatrics undergoing MRI.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 4

Detailed Description

This prospective randomized double-blind clinical trial will be carried out on 60 children undergoing elective MRI in Tanta University Hospitals.

Sixty children will be randomly allocated into two equal groups by computer-generated sequence through sealed opaque envelopes:

Group D: 30 children will be sedated with 2 μg/kg intranasal DEX. Group M: 30 children will be sedated with 0.3 mg/kg intranasal midazolam.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Dexmedetomidine Group

30 children will be sedated with 2 μg/kg intranasal dexmedetomidine

Drug: Dexmedetomidine
30 children will be sedated with 2 μg/kg intranasal DEX.

Active Comparator: Midazolam Group

30 children will be sedated with 0.3 mg/kg intranasal midazolam.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. The incidence of successful sedation [One hour]

    Successful sedation is defined as the time taken to achieve an MOAA/S score of 4 and is the time when the patients are calm and sedated and allow intravenous cannulation and MRI examination without crying or agitation.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. The onset time of sedation [One hour]

    The onset time of sedation is defined as the time from drug administration to successful sedation.

  2. The occurrence of Adverse effects [One hour]

    The occurrences of adverse events will be recorded (e.g. bradycardia, a significant oxygen saturation decrease, severe arrhythmia or arrest).

  3. The degree of operator satisfaction [One hour]

    MRI operator satisfaction before discharge using a 5- point score, with (0 = very dissatisfied, 1 = dissatisfied, 2 = neither satisfied nor dissatisfied, 3 = satisfied and 4 = very satisfied).
