1 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This is a retrospective chart review study (700 charts from 2002 to 2010)of children from 0 to 18 years of age who have undergone Brainstem Evoked Auditory Response (BEAR)testing using midazolam and pentobarbital protocol for moderate sedation. The specific aims of this study are two-fold: 1. to determine the efficacy of intravenous pentobarbital during BEAR testing in the pediatric population using a standardized protocol; and 2. to evaluate the incidence of adverse events (major and minor), paradoxical reaction and failed sedation and identify predictors for failure and adverse events if any.
