Study Groups

Propofol

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Diprivan

Intervention Type DRUG

Similar to the high-intensity propofol treatments in Phase 1, the anesthesiologist will administer an induction dose of propofol followed by a continuous infusion, insert an airway, and begin mechanical ventilation. Propofol dosing will be adjusted with the goal of achieving a burst-suppression state with a SR of 40-60 for 12-15 minutes.
