ABSTRACT

Introduction: The requirement of the anesthesiologist for patient care outside the surgical area is constantly increasing. It is an activity that encompasses the different degrees of monitoring, sedation, and anesthesia. Objective: To compare the safety and efficacy of midazolam midazolam-diphenhydramine against magnetic resonance with level of sedation on the Ramsay scale. Materials and methods: We performed a study in the Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social Obregon, Sonora, of patients scheduled for cranial magnetic resonance imaging with sedation, during October and December 2013, comparing two groups: midazolam/diphenhydramine against midazolam groups. Results: We included 68 patients, 34 in the experimental group (midazolam-diphenhydramine) versus 34 controls (midazolam). The Ramsay scale showed, in the experimental group, an increased sedation effect resulting in one Ramsay 1, at 10 minutes 2.8 2.8 20 minutes and 30 minutes 2.0. In the control group the basal Ramsay was 1, 2.1 to 10 minutes, 20 minutes and 2.1 to 2.0 at 30 minutes (p = 0.0001). The analysis of heart rate, respiratory, and baseline oxygen saturation, at 10, 20 and 30 minutes, was p = 0.0001 for both groups. Conclusion: The combination of diphenhydramine with intravenous midazolam is safe, with the degree of sedation being better compared with use of midazolam alone, resulting in less failure of sedation during magnetic resonance imaging.
