Anesthesia And Analgesics For Patients During Diagnostic X-Ray Imaging

Abstract

goal of this document is to list the pharmaceutical products and the necessary safety parameters for evaluating the anesthetic, sedative, and analgesic techniques in patients subjected to diagnostic imaging studies under a controlled environment. It is emphasized to control the environment where the patient is imaged, to treat early, and to prevent complications. The resources for anesthetic, sedative, and analgesic therapy, and the possibility of overseeing an experienced  anesthetist are to obtai The n quality diagnostic images and minimize adverse events with the patient. The technical and professional team are the premises for starting and organizing this protocol. Non-invasive high-quality images provide new diagnostic information, define surgical planning, and open new avenues for early and precision treatments. The following statement is the basis of the document: 'It is recommended to perform diagnostic imaging tests under controlled environmental situations... patients are placed under the action of appropriate anesthesia and analgesia at the time for diagnostic imaging procedures that require support for maintenance.' The following points are discussed in dealing with anesthetized patients immobilized in sternal or dorsal recumbence for diagnostic imaging purposes: anesthesia depth and how to assess it, the necessary equipment, complications during anesthesia and how to prevent them, possible consequences in fetuses. Premedication or another support must be discussed by the anesthetist and the  imaging personnel in order to define the procedure and environmental adaptation to receive the patient for imaging detection.
