Introduction:The application of anesthesia outside the operating room for pediatric patients has increased in recent years. For diagnostic and treatment follow-up purposes, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) requires the pediatric patient to remain still, necessitating sedation. The study aimed to determine the frequency of adverse effects and influencing factors in pediatric patients undergoing sedation during MRI.
Methods: Between 19.06.2024 and 16.09.2024, estimated 500 pediatric patients who underwent MRI under sedation will be prospectively observed. All non-intubated patients under the age of 16 will be included in the study. The demographic data, comorbidities, and medications of the patients, the procedures performed, the anesthetic drugs used, the expertise duration of the anesthesiologist, and the adverse effects encountered will be recorded.
All non-intubated patients under the age of 16 were included in the study.
Intubated pediatric patients or older than 16 years patients were excluded.
