Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: BACKGROUND: Patients with cerebral palsy (CP) are at significant risk by means of periodontal disease and tooth decay. Pharmacological techniques that require intensive care such as sedation and general anesthesia are generally used for dental treatment of this patient group. AIM: The purpose of this retrospective study was to compare bispectral index (BIS) values and depth of sedation recorded during deep sedation protocols performed for healthy children and children with CP in the Department of Pediatric Dentistry, Faculty of Dentistry, Gazi University. MATERIALS AND METHODS: mixture deep sedation method were investigated retrospectively. RESULTS: min. CONCLUSION: We concluded that it is necessary to consider the dosage and effect mechanisms of drugs used in children with CP to prevent overuse of anesthetics and emergence of anesthesia-related complications.
