Measure
Propofol
Each patient will receive 1 mg/kg lidocaine followed by 2 mg/kg propofol IV once prior to continuous propofol infusion for MRI sedation at 200 mcg/kg/min. Dose will be increased by 50 mcg/kg/min up to 300 mcg/kg/min for movement and decreased to 150 mcg/kg/min if no movement after 30 minutes. Additional 1 mg/kg propofol bolus administered at time of each movement. Study to be terminated if movement persists despite above interventions. propofol: propofol 2 mg/kg at start of procedure; 2 mg/kg for movement, 200 mic/kg/minute propofol infusion if movement persists
Propofol Dexmedetomidine
Each patient will receive: 1 mg/kg lidocaine, 2 mg/kg propofol, 4 mcg/kg glycopyrrolate and single dose dexmedetomidine administered prior to scan. Dexmedetomidine dose is dependent on expected duration of scan and will be equal to 1 mcg/kg/hour x duration of scan in hours. 1 mg/kg propofol will be administered for movement up to 2 times. For continued movement after that, begin propofol infusion at 150 mcg/kg/min. Study to be terminated if movement persists despite above interventions. propofol: propofol 2 mg/kg at start of procedure; 2 mg/kg for movement, 200 mic/kg/minute propofol infusion if movement persists Dexmedetomidine: single dose dexmedetomidine administered at start of sedation. Dosing is based upon anticipated duration of scan from 30 - 75 minutes and will range from 0.5 mic/kg to 1.25 mic/kg

Timeframe: up to 24 hours.

Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium (PAED) score greater than 12 as defined by Sikich and Lerman. 0 = no delirium, 20 = worst possible delirium; 5 categories scored from 0-4 additive for a maximum score of 20. Categories 1-3 are scored the same and categories ar scored inversely as described. 1. Child makes contact with caregiver, 2. child's actions are purposeful, 3. child is aware of his surroundings. For each of these category, score 0 for extremely, 1 for very much, 2 for quite a bit, 3 for just a little, 4 for not at all. The other 2 categories 4. Child is restless and 5 Child is inconsolable are scored as 0 for not at all, 1 for just a little, 2 for quite a bit, 3 for very much, 4 for extremely

Measure
Propofol
n=22 Participants
Each patient will receive 1 mg/kg lidocaine followed by 2 mg/kg propofol IV once prior to continuous propofol infusion for MRI sedation at 200 mcg/kg/min. Dose will be increased by 50 mcg/kg/min up to 300 mic/kg/min for movement and decreased to 150 mcg/kg/min if no movement after 30 minutes. Additional 1 mg/kg propofol bolus administered at time of each movement. Study to be terminated if movement persists despite above interventions. propofol: propofol 2 mg/kg at start of procedure; 2 mg/kg for movement, 150-300 mcg/kg/minute propofol infusion if movement persists
Propofol Dexmedetomidine
n=18 Participants
Each patient will receive: 1 mg/kg lidocaine, 2 mg/kg propofol, 4 mcg/kg glycopyrrolate and single dose dexmedetomidine administered prior to scan. Dexmedetomidine dose is dependent on expected duration of scan and will be equal to 1 mcg/kg/hour x duration of scan in hours. 1 mg/kg propofol will be administered for movement up to 2 times. For continued movement after that, begin propofol infusion at 150 mcg/kg/min. Study to be terminated if movement persists despite above interventions. propofol: propofol 2 mg/kg at start of procedure; 2 mg/kg for movement, 150-300 mcg/kg/minute propofol infusion if movement persists. Dexmedetomidine: single dose dexmedetomidine administered at start of sedation in the propofol-dexmedetomidine group. Dosing is based upon anticipated duration of scan from 30 - 75 minutes and will range from 0.5 mic/kg to 1.25 mcg/kg. Glycopyrrolate: 4 mcg/kg glycopyrrolate will be administered at the start of sedation in the propofol-dexmedetomidine group.
