Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative StudyChloral hydrate and/or hydroxyzine for sedation in pediatric EEG recording.
To evaluate and compare the success of chloral hydrate (CH) and hydroxyzine on sedation and assess the changes of these drugs on sleep EEG recordings. ⋯ The study described the clinical practice of sedation with CH and hydroxyzine on EEG recording. Data suggest that CH with low doses and hydroxyzine is equally effective for sleep induction, but the side effects of CH on the sleep EEG is much more prominent.
