Filter by:The purpose of this study is to explore the optimal sequence of same-day bidirectional endoscopy under deep anesthesia induced by propofol combined with fentanyl.
Oxygen supplementation through high flow nasal cannula (HFNC) may reduce the incidence of desaturation and hypoxemia during deep sedation at radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA procedures).This study is designed to test the hypothesis that the incidence of hypoxemia and desaturation in patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing RFCA under deep sedation, is less when using HFNC as compared to use of standard low flow nasal cannula (LFNC).
Propofol (Propofol Kabi, Registration number from the State Register of Medicines - 000875) is a widely used intravenous anesthetic. It is well known about different effects of propofol infusion, including euphoria, psycholalia, disinhibition, talkativeness, satisfaction etc. However, the basic mechanisms of such effects remain unknown. We suppose that propofol sedation with various levels of sedation (from light to deep) leads to neuromediators changes. We examine dopamine, noradrenaline, acetylcholine, GABA and serotonin in peripheral venous blood before, during and after propofol sedation. Therefore, we suppose drugs for sedation, in particular, propofol will affect neuromediators concentration.
It is important to choose an appropriate analgesia/sedation technique in pediatric dental treatment. Premedication combined with intravenous anesthesia is often used in deep sedation technique for pediatric dental treatment and it's a routine in most hospitals. Deep sedation has its unique advantages such as avoiding the airway damage with an enhanced recovery. Dexmedetomidine is suitable for intranasal mucosal administration as a premedication drug. It has been proved with several beneficial characteristics in other clinical procedures. This study intends to further explore the characteristics of nasal dexmedetomidine as premedication in pediatric oral treatment under deep sedation.
It is commonly recommended that patients should refrain from driving for 24 hours after sedation for endoscopy，however，this recommendation has been queried recently．To investigate the effect of sedation on early postoperative cognitive function in patients undergoing endoscopy.
Achieving the optimal sedation level for patient management is not always possible using our standard intravenous medications in Pre-hospital Emergency medicine. Inhaled sedation is possible with the Anesthetic-conserving device with a standard respirator. The pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of halogenated agents allow deep sedation quickly after absorption. The feasibility of inhaled sedation has never been studied in hospital.
Critically ill patients under mechanical ventilation (MV) have pain, anxiety, sleep deprivation and agitation. The use of analgesics and sedatives drugs (sedoanalgesia) is a common practice to produce pain relief and comfort during the VM. Despite its usefulness, it has been documented that the excessive use of sedatives is associated with an increased risk of prolonging the stay under MV and in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). To avoid this, current evidence suggests the use of protocols guided to clinical goals, such as the sedation-agitation scale (SAS), or daily suspension of infusions to avoid excess sedation. These protocols minimize the prescription of deep sedation, which is still necessary for 20-30% of patients. Monitoring of sedation with electroencephalography in the ICU has been underutilized. In fact, only the use of indices that are generated from algorithms of the electroencephalographic signal processing has been reported. However, it has been shown that the use of these monitoring systems does not benefit the heterogeneous groups of patients in MV. Currently, the clinical monitors used to measure the effect of drugs used in a sedoanalgesia show in the screen the spectrogram of the brain electrical signal and quantify the frequency under which 95% of the electroencephalographic power is located, known as spectral edge frequency 95 (SEF95). This value in a person who is conscious is usually greater than 20 Hz, in a patient undergoing general anesthesia it is between 10 and 15 Hz. In preliminary measurements, in deeply sedated patients in the ICU, SEF95 values are under 5 Hz. This would indicate that patients in the ICU are being overdosed. It is unknown if in cases with an indication of deep sedation, the use of monitoring by spectrogram is superior to the standard management guided at clinical scales, such as SAS. Therefore, the investigators propose the following hypothesis: In patients with an appropriate indication of deep sedation (SAS 1-2), the sedoanalgesia guided by the spectral edge frequency 95 reduces the consumption of propofol compared to the deep sedoanalgesia guided by the sedation scale agitation in MV patients in the ICU maintaining a clinically adequate level of sedation.
Abstract Backgrounds and objectives: Dental treatments, especially in children who can not be cooperated, may require deep sedation due to intense anxiety and fear. During sedation oxygen is usually given to the patients by nasal cannula. Investigators want to use nasal mask for non-invasive mechanical ventilation for oxygenation of the patient during sedation for dental treatment and described it with nasal cannula. Methods: Seventy three children classified as ASA 1 or 2, aged between 3 to 17 will be included for this study. During deep sedation procedure group M will be applied nasal mask in order to noninvazive mechanical ventilation, group C will be applied nasal cannula connected to the oxygen flowmeter.
This a randomized clinical trial involving children with non-operative fractures presenting the emergency department randomized either to intranasal or intravenous ketamine.
Obesity is omnipresent problem in everyday anesthesiology practice associated with low level of blood oxygen (hypoxemia) during analgo-sedation. Overweight outpatients are often scheduled for colonoscopy usually undergo analgo-sedation. In obese patients, intravenous analgo-sedation often diminish respiratory drive causing hypoxemia. To avoid hypoxemia, low-flow nasal oxygenation (LFNO) of 2-6 L/min is applied via standard nasal catheter to provide maximum 40 % of inspired fraction of oxygen (FiO2). LFNO comprises applying cold and dry oxygen which causes discomfort to nasal mucosa of patient. LFNO is often insufficient to provide satisfying oxygenation. Insufficient oxygenation adds to circulatory instability - heart rate (HR) and blood pressure (BP) disorder. On the other side, high-flow nasal oxygenation (HFNO) brings 20 to 70 L/min of heated and humidified of O2/air mixture up to 100% FiO2 via specially designed nasal cannula. Heated and humidified O2/air mixture is much more agreeable to patient. HFNO brings noninvasive support to patients' spontaneous breathing by producing continuous positive pressure of 3-7 cmH2O in upper airways consequently enhancing oxygenation. Investigators intend to analyze effect of HFNO vs. LFNO on oxygen saturation during procedural analgo-sedation for colonoscopy in obese adult patients. Investigators expect that obese patients with preserved spontaneous breathing, oxygenized by HFNO vs. LFNO, will be less prone to hypoxemia thus more respiratory and circulatory stable during procedural analgo-sedation for colonoscopy. Obese patients with applied HFNO should longer preserve: normal oxygen saturation, normal level of CO2 and O2, reflecting better respiratory stability. Investigators expect obese participnts to have more stable HR and BP, reflecting improved circulatory stability. There will be less interruption of breathing pattern of obese patients and less necessity for attending anesthesiologist to intervene.
