No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The primary goal is to quantify cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) volume, diffusion characteristics and mechanical properties of brain tissue at two states of arousal.

Conditions

  • Cerebrospinal Fluid Pressure Increased

Interventions

DRUG

Dexmedetomidine

The standard dosing of 1mcg/kg will be implemented over 10 minutes followed by a maintenance infusion of 0.2-1.0 titrated to a the target BIS (60-70) during the 20 minutes prior to MRI.
