Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Increasing evidences suggest that dexmedetomidine Pharmacokinetic are different in children. We performed a up-down sequential allocation study to determine the ED50 for rescue sedation following sedation failures in children and to investigate age-related differences in the rescue sedation with dexmedetomidine.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

About 150 children who were not adequately sedated ( no evidence of adequate sedation within 30 min after administration of Initial dose of chloral hydrate) were stratified into four age groups as follows: 1-6 month, 7 -12 month, 13 -24 month, and 25-36 month. The intranasal dexmedetomidine dose was determined by the success or failure of rescue sedation achieved by the previous patients, according to Dixon's up-down sequential allocation method. Successful sedation was defined as a MOAA/S(modified Observer Assessment of Alertness and Sedation) of between 0 and 3. The EC50 were estimated from the up-and-down sequences using the method of Dixon and Massey and logistic regression. Patients' sedation status, sedation induction time, time to Wake up, blood pressure, heart rate, and oxygen saturation were recorded.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

1-6 months (Group 1)

Subjects stratified into four groups according to age: 1-6 months (Group 1), 7-12 months (Group 2),13-24 months (Group 3), 26-36 months (Group 4).

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

intranasal dexmedetomidine

Intervention Type DRUG

Children who were not adequately sedated ( no evidence of adequate sedation within 30 min after administration of Initial dose of chloral hydrate) received a bolus of intranasal dexmedetomidine which adjusted by the "Dixon up-and-down method for rescue sedation.

The first child received 0.8mcg/Kg of intranasal dexmedetomidine dose (100mcg/ml), and the dose interval was set at 0.1mcg/Kg.

7-12 months (Group 2)

Subjects stratified into four groups according to age: 1-6 months (Group 1), 7-12 months (Group 2),13-24 months (Group 3), 26-36 months (Group 4).

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Intervention Type DRUG

Children who were not adequately sedated ( no evidence of adequate sedation within 30 min after administration of Initial dose of chloral hydrate) received a bolus of intranasal dexmedetomidine which adjusted by the "Dixon up-and-down method for rescue sedation.

The first child received 0.8mcg/Kg of intranasal dexmedetomidine dose (100mcg/ml), and the dose interval was set at 0.1mcg/Kg.

13-24 months (Group 3)

Subjects stratified into four groups according to age: 1-6 months (Group 1), 7-12 months (Group 2),13-24 months (Group 3), 26-36 months (Group 4).
