Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
Research Hypothesis: Intranasal Dexmedetomidine 3mcg/kg is more efficient than intranasal dexmedetomidine 2mcg/kg for non-invasive radiological procedural sedation in pediatric age group. Greater efficacy will be established based on sedation level and need of rescue doses of drug.   One year  
 
Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
we assume that, physician’s satisfaction in performing the procedure is better with 3mcg/kg body weight
safety profile of 3mcg/kg body weight dose of Intranasal dexmedetomidine in terms of adverse events (bradycardia, hypotension, desaturation, excessive sedation) is better.

Brief Summary  

The importance of procedural sedation and analgesia (PSA) for children undergoing diagnostic procedures such as imaging studies in CT, MRI suite and for echocardiography has led to an increase in demand for sedation outside of the operating room. Due to this demand, the role of pediatricians, physicians, anaesthesists and emergency physicians have also expanded to include PSA. For non-operating room anesthesia, (NORA) dexmedetomidine offers a safety profile similar to traditional sedatives (i.e., ketamine and midazolam) and has been reported to be efficacious even when administered intranasally (IN).

We plan to conduct this research as Intranasal administration of dexmedetomidine may be advantageous for such procedures in pediatric population, as compared to intravenous route as it is shown to have lesser hemodynamic changes and preserves the airway better, additionally, the fear and anxiety triggered by needles and closed environment are also less.
