Brief Summary:
Background Preterm infants undergo serial eye examinations during their hospital stay to monitor for the development of a specific disease termed retinopathy of prematurity While those examinations are known to cause significant pain and stress the current standard of care sucrose and local anesthesia is not adequate in terms of alleviation of pain
Purpose The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of dexmedetomidine for pain management in preterm infants undergoing routine eye examinations
The main questions it aims to answer are
Does dexmedetomidine reduce the pain scores of preterm infants during and shortly after eye assessments in comparison to placebo saline 09
Does dexmedetomidine cause more adverse effects than placebo
In this crossover study participants will receive either dexmedetomidine or saline 09 intranasally 30 minutes before the examination on top of the current standard of care The participants will be monitored closely for 5 hours to note differences in adverse effects The researchers will use video monitoring to assess the pain scores using a standardized and validated scoring system
