Efficacy of Propofol-Ketamine and Sevoflurane in Children Undergoing Magnetic Resonance Imaging

For Group S, 8% sevoflurane was administered for induction via the procedural oxygen mask for 2 minutes through the external output of the anesthesia machine. The concentration was then reduced to 2%. If any undesired movements occurred, they were recorded, and the sevoflurane concentration was increased by 0.5%.

In Group P, 1.0 mg/kg propofol as a bolus. In the event of undesired movements, an additional 0.5 mg/kg of propofol was administered, and all additional doses were recorded.

In Group P, 1 mg/kg, single dose ketamine was administered intravenously and all additional doses were recorded.
