Conditions
Myoclonus
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT02518789

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
myoclonus levelwhen myoclonus occurs after emulsion injection is completed,assessed up to 5 minutes

* Level 0 :no myoclonus happened;

* Level 1 :mild, tiny movement, one part of the body such as a finger or shoulder movement;

* Level 2 :moderate ,2 pieces of different muscle or slight movement of the muscle groups, such as face or legs;

* Level 3 :severely, 2 pieces or more muscle contracture intensity, such as fast outreach of limbs

Plasma homovanillic acid concentration(PHVA)Measured when myoclonus occurs after emulsion injection is completed,assessed up to 5 minutes; if myoclonus does not appear,measured at 5 minutes after emulsion injection is completed.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Ramsay sedation score1 min after entering the operating room; 1 min after dexmedetomidine injection is completed; 1 min after emulsion injection is completed;5 minutes after emulsion injection is completed;
Narcotrend index1 min after entering the operating room; 1 min after dexmedetomidine injection is completed; 1 min after emulsion injection is completed;5 minutes after emulsion injection is completed;
