The median effective dose (ED50) and ED95 of intranasal dexmedetomidine as a single bolus have not been described for sedation in children undergoing transthoracic echocardiography (TEE) study. This information is important to compare agents and to determine the most effective sedative dose. The investigators performed a two-stage study to determine the ED50 and the ED95 of intranasal dexmedetomidine to investigate age-related differences in participants undergoing transthoracic echocardiography study.

| Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Other | heart rate | Bradycardia was defined as a reduction in heart rate more than 20% from the baseline values | up to 3 hours after drug administration | |
| Other | Oxyhemoglobin desaturation | Significant Oxyhemoglobin desaturation was defined as < 90%. | up to 3 hours after drug administration | |
| Other | non-invasive systolic blood pressure | Hypotension was defined as a reduction in systolic blood pressure more than 20% from the baseline values | up to 3 hours after drug administration | |
| Primary | The ED50 doses for intranasal dexmedetomidine | Phase 1: The starting dose of dexmedetomidine was 2.5 mcg/kg. These doses varied by 0.1 mcg/kg, according to the up-and-down method 18. If the detected MOAA/S score was >3 within 45 minutes after intranasal administration, or clinically adequate diagnostic-quality images could not be acquired, sedation was considered a failure; and the dexmedetomidine dose was increased by 0.1 mcg/kg in the next patient of the same age group. In contrast, if the detected MOAA/S score was =3 and the acquisition of clinically adequate diagnostic-quality images was possible, the sedation was considered successful; and the dexmedetomidine dose was decreased by 0.1 mcg/kg in the next patient o | up to 0.5 hours after transthoracic echocardiography | |
| Primary | The ED95 doses for intranasal dexmedetomidine | Phase 2 was a dose-escalation study. After interim analysis of the phase 1 results, four dose levels above the calculated ED50 were defined. Dose spacing was set at 0.3 mcg/kg of intranasal dexmedetomidine consistent with the re-estimated standard deviation (SD). Defined levels were set at about 2.5, 2.75, 3.0, and 3.25 mcg/kg of intranasal dexmedetomidine. Criteria for success and failure were identical to those in phase 1. Successful sedation was defined as a MOAA/S score between 0-3 and allowed the acquisition of clinically adequate diagnostic-quality images, while failure was defined as a MOAA/S score >3 within 45 minutes or clinically adequate diagnostic-quality images could not be acquired |
up to 0.5 hours after transthoracic echocardiography | |
| Primary | Score of physical movement | Movement score was recorded by sonographers who were blinded to the sedative regimen. No movement Occasional, slight movement Frequent, slight movement Vigorous movement limited to extremities Vigorous movement, including torso and head |
up to 0.5 hours after transthoracic echocardiography | |
| Secondary | sedation induction time | Successful sedation was defined as an MOAA/S of between 0 and 3, and sedation induction time was defined as the time from drug administration to the onset of satisfactory sedation | up to 2 hours after drug administration | |
| Secondary | Wake -up time | Children were classified as awake if the MOAA/S was between 4 and 6. Wake -up time was defined as the time from successful sedation until the time that the child awoke | up to 2 hours after drug administration |
