Primary outcomePrimary: Number of Participants With Changes in the Brains Default Mode Network. — 16 participants
Summary
The investigators are doing this research study to find out how and where dexmedetomidine, a sedative anesthetic, acts in the brain. The investigators will do this by using a machine that records the brains electrical activity, called an electroencephalogram (EEG), and brain imaging scans to look at the brain.
