Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1) To study the efficacy of total intravenous anesthesia which is defined by â?¢ Sedation success rate â?¢ Quality of scan as per the radiologist â?¢ Recovery time â?¢ Discharge time Timepoint: every 5 minutes during the procedure

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To study the safety profile of total intravenous anesthesia, defined by the occurrence of â?¢ Haemodynamic adverse events: Bradycardia Hypotension â?¢ Respiratory adverse events: Bradypnoea (RR 12/min) Desaturation (SpO295%) Laryngospasm Apnoea (cessation of respiration for 20 s) Need of airway intervention measures (jaw thrust, Guedels or laryngeal mask airway, endotracheal tube, or positive pressure ventilation). â?¢ Emergence reaction: determined by the Watcha scale on awakening. Timepoint: At the end of the procedure At the end of the recovery period
