Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Sedation and anesthesia for which to perform diagnostic imaging represents a rapidly growing field of practice, especially in children. Propofol is the most common sedative drug administered for MRI/CT. However, this drug is associated with adverse events, including pulmonary complications, and there has been no report on these complications in Korea. In this prospective observation study, the investigators will report the nature and frequency of adverse events associated with propofol-based sedation for MRI/CT.

sedation group

Children requiring sedation for MRI/CT

Drug: sedation with propofol
When a patient is admitted to the Pediatric Sedation Center, a presedation assessment is performed by hospitalists. Then Pediatric sedation is performed by protocol in the sedation unit. Data on demographics, primary illness, ASA, snoring history, URI symptom, medications used, procedure and recovery times, medication doses, outcomes of anesthesia, airway interventions and adverse events will be reported.
