Abstract: The aim of this study is to see if correlation between preprocedural heart rate and behavioral outcomes of non-iv sedation. This study will evaluate the pediatric population ages 4 to 6 years old with respect to gender.
The design of this study is to assess patients heart rates with a pulse oximeter and assess their sedation level based on Ramsays sedation scale. Heart rates will be taken at the treatment planning visit, pre operatively, and at 20 minute intervals. Sedations will be conducted using an oral cocktail of 2mg/kg of hydroxyzine and 2mg/kg of meperidine.
The study is ongoing and therefore, the results and the conclusions are undetermined.
