Massachusetts General Hospital·interventional·Posted Dec 5, 2011·Updated Jan 8, 2019

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating dexmedetomidine for Dexmedetomidine Induced Sedation. Completed, enrolled 20 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

The investigators are doing this research study to find out how and where dexmedetomidine, a sedative anesthetic, acts in the brain. The investigators will do this by using a machine that records the brains electrical activity, called an electroencephalogram (EEG), and brain imaging scans to look at the brain.
