Study Summary

The number of children undergoing MRI imaging has increased significantly in the past years, because many young children cannot stay still for the duration of the scan, have difficulty tolerating the confined space and the noise produced by the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) machine, sedation or General Anesthesia is required in these cases. In the investigators institution, the investigators use General Anesthesia for children undergoing MRI. Because children have a larger surface area to body weight ratio; hypothermia from passive heat loss is one of the anesthesiologists' concerns. MRI requires a cool environment with low humidity; this specialized environment represents a significant thermal challenge to the anesthetized children. Since most temperature devices are not compatible with the MRI, the simple task to measure temperature change has never been investigated.

Primary Outcome

Axillary temperature was measured with MRI-compatible Tempa dot immediately before general anesthesia was induced. Second axillary temperature reading was taken at the conclusion of the MRI scan before emergence from general anesthesia. Room temperature was measured with a digital thermometer placed in scanner room outside the magnet range.

Interventions

  • OTHER axillary temperature before MRI and after the MRI
