Abstract
- In this study we compare the safety and efficacy of propofol and ketamine as sedative for MRI in pediatric patients. 20 pediatric patients (3-12 ages and ASA I-II) were divided into two groups. Group I received a loading dose of propofol of 1-2 mg/kg and intermittant 0.5 mg/kg IV bolus doses as necessary. Group II received ketamine 1-2 mg/kg initially and 1 mg/kg intermittantly during MRI. In both group vital signs; HR, RR, SaO2 and sedation scores were obtained every 15 minutes during MRI. Duration to arousal, recovery and oral feeding were determined in both groups. Adverse effects were evaluated during procedure. There were no significant differences in demographic values and sedation scores between two groups (p > 0.05). Duration of MRI were significantly longer and only heart rate was significantly higher in ketamine group (p
