Dexmedetomidine in awake craniotomy: a technical note
Ard, John L Jr; Bekker, Alex Y; Doyle, Werner K
2005 Feb;63(2):114-116, Surgical neurology
BACKGROUND: Resection of lesions in eloquent areas of the brain are sometimes best done with the patient awake. An awake patient provides neurological feedback as the lesion is resected. This increases the chances of a complete resection without leaving a patient neurologically devastated. Unfortunately, this procedure is not always well tolerated by the patient. METHODS: We performed a case series of awake craniotomies using a dexmedetomidine infusion. RESULTS: All 17 patients included in our study tolerated the procedure well with no major complications. CONCLUSIONS: The addition of dexmedetomidine to our technique improves safety and comfort for patients undergoing awake craniotomy

Awake craniotomy with dexmedetomidine in pediatric patients
Ard, John; Doyle, Werner; Bekker, Alex
2003 Jul;15(3):263-266, Journal of neurosurgical anesthesiology
We present our experience with the use of dexmedetomidine, an alpha2 agonist, in two children undergoing awake craniotomy. General anesthesia with the laryngeal mask airway was used for parts of the procedure not requiring patient cooperation to reduce the duration of wakefulness and abolish the discomfort of surgical stimulation. Dexmedetomidine was used as a primary anesthetic for brain mapping of the cortical speech area. The asleep-awake-sleep technique provided adequate sedation and analgesia throughout the surgery and allowed the patient to complete the necessary neuropsychological tests. To our knowledge, ours is the first description of the use of dexmedetomidine in pediatric neurosurgery
