Propofol infusion syndrome in children
Abstract
Department of Anaesthesia, Royal Victoria Infirmary, Queen Victoria Road, Newcastle upon Tyne NE1 4LP, UKThe use of propofol infusions to sedate children in intensive care units has decreased after reports of deaths from myocardial failure. More recently it has been suggested that propofol might have been prematurely condemned. Information about 18 children who had received propofol infusions and suffered serious unwanted effects was used to define their common features. Three of the deaths occurred in one intensive care unit where propofol infusions had been used between 1987 and 1993. During this period 44 children with respiratory tract infections had been admitted to this unit and sedated for at least 48 h. Nine had received long‐term (>48 h), high‐dose (>4 mg·kg·1·h‐1) propofol infusions and three had developed progressive myocardial failure and died. There was a significant association between receiving a long‐term, high‐dose propofol infusion and developing progressive myocardial failure (Fisher's Exact Test, two‐tailed hypothesis, P=0.0128) although a causative relationship could not be proved.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
