简要总结
The demand for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in pediatric patients is increasing due to its use in medical diagnosis and surveillance. Pediatric patients often require general anesthesia (GA) for MRI due to the need for prolonged immobility during the scanning process to obtain high quality images. Two widely used anesthetic techniques for pediatric MRIs are volatile-based anesthesia using sevoflurane and total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) using propofol. Concerns have been raised regarding the potential neurotoxic effects of anesthetics on the developing brain. Within the animal literature, there is emerging evidence to suggest that both sevoflurane and propofol may cause inflammation, impacting brain cell survival and connections, thereby contributing to possible cognitive dysfunction. However, given the challenges in extrapolating the animal data to humans, and the relatively limited human cohort studies examining the long-term effects of anesthesia exposure, there is inadequate information available to make informed clinical decisions regarding the choice of optimal anesthetic agents for MRI in children. Therefore, this study will uniquely examine the mechanisms of two widely used anesthetics and their short and long-term impact on developmental outcomes in healthy children.

研究组 & 干预措施
Inhalational Technique
All patients will receive Ametop local anesthetic to the dorsum of both hands 30-45 minutes prior to induction. After inhalation induction of anesthesia with sevoflurane (in 100% O2), an IV will be obtained. Anesthesia will be maintained with sevoflurane (in a mixture of air:oxygen) with a minimum alveolar concentration of 1.0-1.3, titrated to effect. No long acting opioids or nitrous oxide will be used. Airway management will be at the discretion of the anesthesiologist. Each patient will receive the antiemetic ondansetron 0.1mg/kg IV.

干预措施: Ondansetron (Drug)
Total Intravenous Anesthetic Technique
All patients will receive Ametop local anesthetic to the dorsum of both hands 30-45 minutes prior to IV insertion. Once an IV is established, patients will receive an IV bolus of propofol (2-6mg/kg). Anesthesia will be maintained with a propofol infusion starting at 250 mcg/kg/min and titrated to effect. Airway management will be at the discretion of the anesthesiologist. Each patient will receive the antiemetic ondansetron 0.1mg/kg IV.
