More Information
Summary:[1] ECG artifacts caused by electromagnetic fields of the magnetic resonance system can make detection of any arrhythmia or new onset morphologic changes very difficult. [...]I-gel™ is a helpful airway device for MRI in children in routine as well as emergency scenario. [...]sevoflurane was opted which preserves systemic arterial pressure. [2] We preferred dexmedetomidine infusion in low dose as maintenance drug with gaseous mixture (O2: Air) because of its central sympatholytic activity which would have helped in condition of congestive heart failure if arisen as untoward event during the procedure unlike any inhalational agent.
