Hello Guys, I consider giving brief anaesthesia for administration of Lucentis in babies already imi-intensive ward . Do you rely only on local anaesthetic given by ophtalmologist ? Would oral 20 % glucose be sufficient, or perhaps some midazolam apart form local ? Thank you
In our Warsaw NICU we would use dexmedetomidine in a dose of 0,7 to 1,0 mcg/kg/hour in cases of difficulty in synchronising the baby with ventilator, in extere cases we use opioids (morphine or sufentanil). Tkanks and good luck
