Abstract:
Dexmedetomidine,a highly effective and selective adrenergic α2 receptor agonist,is applied in the sedation of adult ICU,and it is widely used in clinical anesthesia in recent years.Dexmedetomidine is still in the exploratory stage in clinical application of children.However,there are more evidence suggesting that dexmedetomidine has presented good effects in the anxiolytic,pediatric sedation,analgesic,anti-sympathetic,and stablizing hemodynamic.This review presents the clinical application of dexmedetomidine in pediatric clinical anesthesia.
