Results Overview

The objective is to determine the effective bolus dose in 50% of subjects (ED50) of propofol in combination with ketamine 0, 0.25, 0.5 and 1 mg/kg that produces an adequate depth of anesthesia to prevent minimal or no movement on endoscope insertion in children

Recruitment status

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: This outcome is measured at the time of insertion of the endoscope into the esophagus.

Population: Dose of propofol required to prevent movement upon insertion of endoscope

The objective is to determine the effective bolus dose in 50% of subjects (ED50) of propofol in combination with ketamine 0, 0.25, 0.5 and 1 mg/kg that produces an adequate depth of anesthesia to prevent minimal or no movement on endoscope insertion in children
