Interventions
Ketamine IV bolus 1 mg/kg (range commonly 0.5-1.5 mg/kg) administered as an initial bolus to provide analgesia and hemodynamic support; followed by a propofol infusion 100-150 µg/kg/min (titrated to clinical effect). Rescue propofol boluses 0.5 mg/kg IV may be given for inadequate sedation
Dexmedetomidine loading dose 1 µg/kg over 10 minutes (range 0.5-1 µg/kg reported) followed by maintenance infusion per clinical need; co-administration of propofol infusion 100-150 µg/kg/min, titrated to the sedation target. Rescue propofol boluses 0.5 mg/kg IV may be used for breakthrough movement or inadequate sedation
