Filter by:The investigators studied the effects of intranasal dexmedetomidine compared with oral midazolam with different doses for premedication in children. One hundred and twenty children aged between 2 and 12 years were randomly allocated to one of four groups:2.5µg/kg intranasal dexmedetomidine group ; 0.5mg/kg oral midazolam group;0.05 mg/kg intravenous injection midazolam group; no premedication group. Sedation levels 10, 20, and 30min after premedication were evaluated using a 5-point sedation scale. A 4-point emotional state score was used to evaluate participators when they were separated from their parents and their response to intravenous cannulation or facemask application. Agitation scores (Pediatric Anesthe-sia Emergence Delirium [PAED] scale) and POV were assessed in the postanesthetic care unit (PACU).Times to endotracheal tube or laryngeal mask airway removal, discharge from the PACU and patients' satisfaction degree were also assessed.
The study is designed to test the hypothesis that long term memory created by preoperative video information can reduce the incidence of post operative behavioral changes.
This is a two-stage adaptive Phase Ib trial design, that will identify two doses (lowest dose with clinical benefit and highest safe dose) in a first stage and better evaluate safety, tolerability and variability of effect in the second stage.
This study assess which Spanish intensive care units evaluate and record, in a standardized way, levels of pain, sedation / agitation, use of physical restraints and prevalence of delirium. Also determine the use of validated assessment tools and explore levels of pain and sedation / agitation, use of physical restraints and prevalence of delirium.
This is a randomised controlled trial comparing haloperidol + promethazine versus haloperidol + promethazine + chlorpromazine for agitated patients in the emergency department.
This research study is being done to figure out the best approach to treatment of pre-hospital agitation. It will compare two tiered dosing treatment protocols, one ketamine-based and one midazolam-based. Agitation is a state of extreme emotional disturbance where patients can become physically aggressive or violent, endangering themselves and those who are caring for them. Often chemical substances or severe mental illness are involved in this level of agitation. Specifically, the investigators are interested in studying agitation that is treated in the prehospital setting by paramedics. This study's hypothesis is a ketamine-based protocol will achieve a faster time to adequate sedation than a midazolam-based protocol for treatment of agitation in the prehospital environment. This study will observe the natural history of an emergency medical services standard operating procedure change from a ketamine-based protocol to a midazolam-based protocol.
Emergence agitation is one of the common postoperative complications after functional endoscopic sinus surgery（FESS). The objective of present study is to explore the effectiveness of butorphanol in the alleviation of emergence agitation in patients undergoing Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery.
The primary purpose of the study is to evaluate whether dexmedetomidine is effective in treating agitated delirium of non-intubated ICI patients
A ten-week study to assess MP-101 in Dementia-Related Psychosis and/or Agitation and Aggression
There is limited information on the best psychoactive medication to treat agitated patients in the emergency department. The intent of this study is to fill in knowledge gaps in the current practice of treating psychiatric patients in the acute care setting. The purpose of this study is to determine the best treatment for agitated psychiatric patients in the emergency department.
