Primary objective:The study has hierarchical co-primary objectives to demonstrate that:- Firstly: dexmedetomidine is at least as effective as sedation with propofol and daily sedation stops, in maintaining a target depth of sedation in ventilated…
The aim of the present study is to investigate the differences in patient and endoscopist satisfaction and experiences and patient*s safety with different sedation protocols.
1. To quantify the influence of propofol on the distribution, redistribution and elimination of ketamine and to evaluate the importance of hemodynamic parameters on the pharmacokinetics of ketamine.2. To quantify the influence of ketamine on the…
1.To evaluate the influence of epidural blockade with ropivacaine on the pharmacokinetics of propofol.2.To evaluate the influence of epidural blockade with ropivacaine on the pharmacodynamics of propofol. This includes both the sedative and the…
Study aims (see page 2 of the protocol)a. To assess the dose-response relationship of propofol on breathing.b. To assess the interaction of propofol and remifentanil on breathing.c. To qunatify the data under closed-loop conditions using an emprical…
Determining the effectiveness of commonly used premedicating agents in reducing subclinical stress responses in newborns during intubation.
The study is performed in order to develop a population pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic model of Propofol when used for induction and maintenance of anaesthesia in the morbidly obese patient (BMI > 40). A covariate analysis will be…
The aim of this study is to determine the patients* and endoscopists experiences and patients* safety with different sedation protocols.
In this study we will assess these prosocial effects in an objective way i.e. by means of computer tasks and we will investigate the role of two potential mediators and the role of a genotype variant in the mechanism underlying prosocial behavior.…
The aim of this study is therefore to investigate the role of the 5-HT2a receptor in the MDMA-induced effects on social behaviour.
To evaluate the impact of electroencephalographic Narcotrend* Index (NI) monitoring on the speed of emergence and recovery from PPS for PGE.
Purpose of the study is to find out if memantine in humans also has benificial effects on memory when given in combination with ecstacy. Therefore, ecstacy will be given in combination with memantine. A secondary goal is to find out the effects of…
The primary objectives of this study consist of:1. To assess the accuracy of different pulse contour methods to measure CO compared to thermodilution CO measured with a PAC in major abdominal surgery patients.2. To assess the effect of propofol…
Previous investigations in our lab have provided insight in the requirements for development of such a system and shown the feasibility of the paradigm (Blokland et al., 2011, Blokland et al., 2012). We have been able to optimize the settings of our…
To investigate the effects of the different combinations of propofol and remifentanil on the isobole of TOL90 and to compare hemodynamics, cerebral and tissue oxygenation for each equipotent combination. To describe the combination of propofol and…
Answering the following questions:1. Main question: Is remifentanil a usefull medication for PSA in the emergency department?2. What is the recovery time of the patient when using fentanyl / propofol / remifentanil (time between last gift PSA…
To evaluate the impact of electroencephalographic NarcotrendTM Index (NI) monitoring on the speed of emergence and recovery from PPS for PGE.
Primary Objective: to assess the immediate and delayed effects of THC on true and false memories in a legal context (i.e., on eyewitness and offender statements).Secondary Objective(s): to link drug-induced false memory effects to…
The purpose of this study is to observe the usability of dexmedetomidine compared to the standard therapy (propofol) and to determine the overall satisfaction of the patient.
To determine effective and safe age specific propofol dosing guidelines for neonates of different age groups (both gestational age and postnatal age). Secondary objective is to determine a new age specific PK/PD (pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic),…
