Detailed Description
Each subject will attend 3 sessions to complete the study. In the first session, an anesthesiologist will take a medical history and perform a physical examination on the subject. A baseline EKG and urine drug screen test will be obtained. If the subject meets the criteria for the study, healthy and drug-free, the risks involved in the study will be covered in detail. If the subject is willing, then that subject will be enrolled in the study and a detailed informed consent form will covered in detail. Prior to signing the consent form the subject will be required to describe the risks involved in the study in their own words, showing that each subject understand. For each session, subjects will be asked not to eat and drink 8 hours prior to the study in order to minimize the potential risk for aspiration during anesthesia
Once the subject is checked in, a peripheral intravenous catheter (IV) will be inserted on one of the arms. A second IV will be inserted to the other arm. After the IV insertion, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) standard monitoring, including EKG, blood pressure (BP), respiratory rate, pulse oximetry and temperature, will be used to assess the subject. An EEG monitor probe will be applied to the forehead skin as well. The subject will then be asked to breathe 100% reof Precedex (2 g/kg), via pump, across 10 minutes. There will be a 5 minute interval to allow the drug to equilibrate. Then p or saline (control). The face mask will stay in place throughout the procedure. For the experiment described, Ati: Dex ratio is 1:1. The investigators will be blind to the injection.
The investigators will measure the time when the drug injections are complete to the awakening of the subject. The investigators will record the time until the subject's eyes open, and the time until the subject can respond to the command to grip the hand of the attending physician. When the subject is awake and alert (oriented to time, place and name), the subject will perform psychomotor tests to measure his cognitive function. The subject will be required to complete a simple set of cognitive tests to determine if they are still impaired by the sedative. Both "control" and test subjects will be required to complete the same tests. Tests include one for hand-eye coordination by tracking a randomly moving circle on a computer screen with a cross controlled by a mouse. Reaction time is measured by asking the subject to press a button when the subject hears a sound. The tests will be repeated every 15 minutes for 90 minutes after waking. This will allow the investigators to get a recovery time course.
