[quote=Anonymous]Has anyone needed their child to do an MRI with sedation? My kiddo is 6.5 years old. Currently in NOVA area. I was told by my child's doctor that they could be in a light sedation but Fairfax hospital said they don't do anything but general for children. I was taken aback and also uncomfortable with the idea of general for a scan. Also, the scheduler mentioned something about goggles that a child could wear and watch cartoons or something so they could be distracted but didn't sound like that was the norm there. Anyone have any experience with this? I'm a nervous person by nature and I like avoiding things like anesthesia if there is a chance for another option, especially for my kids. Are there any other hospitals in VA that have more kid friendly experiences, like the goggles?[/quote]
