Filter by:Ondansetron, a commonly used anti-vomiting medication, may reduce the occurrence of vomiting associated with ketamine during procedural sedation in the pediatric emergency department.
Providing adequate sedation and analgesia is an integral part of the practice of colonoscopy procedure. There are various protocols and methods used to prevent discomfort and alleviate pain. Conscious sedation is one of the options recommended by the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, although the choice of the exact protocol is left to the physician's discretion. This study will attempt to recommend a preferred protocol based on a double blind randomized prospective method. The efficacy of midazolam and ketamine will be compared to the efficacy of midazolam and fentanyl for sedation in ambulatory colonoscopies. The results will be compiled from objective data and patient and physician interviews.
The purpose of this study is to assess efficacy and safety of dexmedetomidine at the time of extubation and after extubation, in patients requiring postoperative sedation in the ICU.
Very often patients receive medication before a diagnostic procedure, like a colonoscopy, to help them relax and stay calm during the procedure. This is called procedural or minimal-to-moderate sedation. One product used for sedation is called propofol. AQUAVAN (fospropofol disodium) is made as a water soluble form of propofol allowing for rapid sedation during the entire procedure. This study is designed to test AQUAVAN for sedation during colonoscopy procedures.
