Presentation Transcript

  1. Sedation and Analgesia for Diagnostic and Therapeutic Procedures Michael S. Mazurek, M.D. Associate Professor of Clinical Anesthesia Riley Hospital for Children

  2. Overview • Goals of Sedation • Definitions of Levels of Sedation • Risks and Complications • Clarian Sedation Guidelines by Case Examples • Specific Drugs

  3. Goals of Sedation • Guard the patient’s safety • Minimize pain • Provide anxiolysis • Control behavior • Return the patient to a state in which safe discharge is possible

  4. Risks and Complications • AIRWAY, AIRWAY, AIRWAY • airway obstruction • hypoventilation • apnea • aspiration • Hemodynamic impairment

  5. Risks and Complications • Numerous case reports exist describing complications from sedation and analgesia • Few large series exist involving a numerator (adverse events) and a denominator (total number of sedations)

  6. Adverse Sedation Events in Pediatrics: A Critical Incident Analysis of Contributing Factors Pediatrics 2000; 105: 805-814 • 4 physicians reviewed adverse sedation events for probable causes • 95 events were reviewed

  7. Safety Conclusions • Respiratory events are the most frequent initiating events • All areas using sedation have reported adverse events Pediatrics 2000; 105: 805-814

  8. Safety Conclusions • Adverse events involved: • Multiple drugs • Drug overdose • Inadequate medical evaluation • Inadequate monitoring • Inadequate practitioner skills Pediatrics 2000; 105: 805-814

  9. Medication Conclusions • Adverse outcome was associated with all routes of drug adminstration • Adverse outcome was associated with all classes of medication, even when given within the recommended dose range • Drugs should not be given at home • Avoid premature discharge Pediatrics 2000; 106: 633-644

  10. Reappraisal of Lytic Cocktail/Demerol, Phenergan, and Thorazine (DPT) for the Sedation of Children Pediatrics 1995; 95: 598-602 “ The DPT cocktail remains a widely used sedative and analgesic for pediatric patients. Neither the combination itself nor its dosage is based on sound pharmacologic data. There is a high rate of therapeutic failure as well as a high rate of serious adverse reactions, including respiratory depression and death, associated with its use.”

  11. Clarian Sedation Guidelines • http://clarianweb.clarian.com/ • Moderate Sedation Guidelines • Deep Sedation Guidelines

  12. 1 year old sedation for an MRI • What equipment do you need available before you sedate this patient?

  13. Equipment • Oxygen supply • Airway equipment of appropriate size • Suction apparatus of appropriate size • Age appropriate emergency cart • Physiological monitoring equipment

  14. 1 year old sedation for an MRI • Do you need a consent for sedation? • Is the MRI consent enough?

  15. 1 year old sedation for MRI • What is important for your presedation history?

  16. Presedation Medical Evaluation • History of sedation/anesthesia problems • Airway problems (obstructive sleep apnea) • Respiratory symptoms • Current medications; drug allergies • Review of systems • NPO status

  17. 1 year old sedation for MRI • Would you sedate the child if they had formula 2 hours ago? • What are appropriate NPO guidelines? • Clear liquids? • Breast milk? • Formula? • Big Mac?

  18. Clarian Sedation Guidelines 1999

  19. 1 year old sedation for MRI • What physical evaluation are you going to perform before the sedation?

  20. Preoperative Evaluation of the Upper Airway • Tongue versus pharyngeal size • Atlanto-occipital joint extension • Anterior mandibular space (thyromental distance • Dental examination

  21. Risk Classification • Low – Relatively healthy patient. • Moderate – Patient with a significant pathologic process that is difficult to control. • High – Patient with a severe pathologic process that has produced potentially irreversible end-organ damage.

  22. Patients at Increased Risk • Prior adverse response to sedation • Airway problems: OSA, difficult intubation, or syndrome with airway abnormalities • Significant respiratory symptoms • High risk classification • Delayed gastric emptying or aspiration risk

  23. 1 year old sedation for MRI • How are you going to monitor the patient?

  24. Monitoring • Patient response as a guide to level of sedation • Children may be an exception • Continuous pulse oximetry • Ventilation • Observation, auscultation, or ETCO2 • ECG and BP for all patients under deep sedation and when indicated for moderate sedation

  25. Ventilation • Pulse oximeter is not a ventilation monitor • Impedence Pneumography does not monitor ventilation • Observation and auscultation for the uncovered patient • ETCO2 for the covered patient

  26. Manpower • Minimum of two persons: • One to perform the procedure • Another to monitor the patient • The monitoring person may assist with short, interruptible tasks during moderate sedation • The monitoring person may have no other duties during deep sedation

  27. Documentation • Clarian Sedation Flowsheet • Medicines • Dosages, times, and routes • Vital signs every 5 minutes • Minimum SaO2 and RR • BP and HR if indicated

  28. Post - Sedation • Observe in quiet environment for resedation • Impaired patients should be back to presedation status • Normal patients should be fully awake

  29. Post - Sedation • Observe for minimum 1 hour if reversal agent given • Physician must perform a post-procedure evaluation • Adverse outcomes documented on flowsheet: • Conversion to GA, emergency intervention, respiratory complications, death

  30. 1 year old for sedation for MRI • How are you going to sedate this kid?

  31. 3 year old for sedation for head laceration in the ER • How are you going to sedate this kid?

  32. 10 year old for bone marrow aspirate • How are you going to sedate this kid?

  33. 8 year old for abdominal CT • How are you going to sedate?

  34. Specific Drugs • Study the pharmacology of the drugs you plan on using • Become an expert on a few, appropriate drugs • Start with small doses and titrate to effect • When combining drugs, decrease the dose of each component

  35. Specific Drugs • Sufficient time should elapse before redosing • Tailor your drugs to need – if you don’t need analgesia, don’t give a narcotic

  36. Other Considerations • Consult a specialist for high risk patients • Maintain your airway skills

  37. Specific Drugs • Local Anesthetics • Chloral hydrate • Midazolam, Flumazenil • Fentanyl, Morphine, Naloxone • Propofol • Ketamine

  38. Local Anesthetics • Use for analgesia • Greatly reduces need for systemic narcotics • EMLA (lidocaine 2.5%, prilocaine 2.5%) • Need 45 – 60 minutes for efficacy • Epinephrine 1:200,000 (5 mcg/cc) • Prolongs duration of block • Decreases bleeding • Slows systemic uptake

  39. Chloral Hydrate • Oral/Rectal dose: 25-100 mg/kg, max 100mg/kg or 2gm • Onset: 15 – 30 minutes • Peak effect: 30 – 60 minutes • Duration of action: variable – may persist for 10 – 20 hours in neonates and toddlers
