Filter by:intravenous infusion of lidocaine significantly reduce fatigue and pain and improve the patients satisfaction after sedation for colonoscopy.
Intravenous infusion of lidocaine significantly reduces incidence of bucking when perfomed gastroscopy.
60 patients ASA I-III, undergoing orthopedic surgery will be randomly assigned into one of three groups, namely group A (n=20), where dexmedetomidine will be used for sedation (initial bolus dose followed by continuous infusion), group B (n=20) where midazolam will be used for sedation (initial bolus dose followed by continuous infusion) and group C (n=20), where remifentanil will be used for sedation (initial bolus dose followed by continuous infusion). All patients will receive spinal anesthesia. Duration of postoperative analgesia, total dose of patient controlled IV morphine, sedation scores, nausea and vomiting, time of ambulation, sleep quality and patient satisfaction will be recorded for the first postoperative day. Additionally chronic pain on the site of surgery will be recorded in 3 and 6 months postoperatively.
The aim of the study is to compare the use of dexmedetomidine + ketamine with dexmedetomidine + placebo for sedation in ICU patients in terms of safety and efficacy
Intravenous infusion of lidocaine significantly reduces propofol dose for ERCP and improve patients' recovery after ERCP.
This study is to investigate on the objective relevance between bispectral index (BIS) and Observer's assessment of alertness/sedation (OAA/S) scale in patients sedated with Midazolam, propofol and dexmedetomidine during spinal anesthesia. Also, we will evaluate the reflection of actual sedation levels on BIS monitoring.
This research is a prospective cohort study. The aim of the study is to determine different levels of sedative mechanism and the effect on brain functional connectivity of midazolam, dexmedetomidine and propofol.
The aim of this study is to investigate the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics of intranasal dexmedetomidine, and comparative pharmacokinetics of intranasally and intravenously administered dexmedetomidine in healthy volunteers.
To show that the nurse implementation of a sedation and analgesia algorithm is beneficial to the patient in terms of sedative drugs reduction and thus overall decrease in duration of mechanical ventilation and the morbidity and mortality which is associated with it, without altering patient comfort and tolerance of the environment. This, compared to the less frequent assessments by doctors and thus regular adjustments during the day as opposed to a fixed drug dose.
The purpose of this study is to estimate the hypothesized benefit of sedation interruption protocol on mechanical ventilation duration and PICU length of stay. The study will evaluate recruitment rates, and adherence rates of such protocol.
