Filter by:The best opioid for bronchoscopy is still unclear.This randomized double-blind prospective study was conducted on a total of 60 patients who were randomly allocated into 3 groups: Group S received sufentanil 0.1 mcg/kg, Group F received fentanyl 1 mcg/kg and Group R received remifentanil target-controlled infusion with effect-site target concentration of 1ng/ml. Patients in all groups received midazolam to achieve moderate levels of sedation as assessed by the Narcotrend (NT; between B1 and C2). Adverse events, patient tolerance and physician satisfaction were analized.
This study aims to characterize airflow patterns during bronchoscopy under conscious sedation, and determine the incidence of obstructive and central respiratory events. The investigators also plan to monitor the degree and frequency of oxygen desaturation throughout the procedure. To achieve this, investigators use a physiologic monitoring device (NOX T3, K082113) that has been FDA approved for the screening and diagnosis of sleep disordered breathing [1]. The results from this pilot study will be used to assess the feasibility of a prospective study utilizing continuous external negative pressure (Pneuway). This negative pressure is applied through a neck mask to alleviate upper airway collapsibility and can potentially decrease the number of apneas during bronchoscopy under conscious sedation [2].
the primary objective of this study is to investigate the sedative, and analgesic effects of oral, or nebulized ketamine as premedication drugs, and providing postoperative analgesia for the preschoolers and decrease their need for systemic analgesia.The secondary objective is to compare each sedation technique after oral, or nebulized ketamine for safety ,and procedural outcomes.
Although topical anesthesia by eye drops for cataract surgery is a non-invasive technique but it may provide insufficient anesthesia which requires the intraoperative use of additional topical local anesthetics and raises the need for sedation.
The investigators hypothesize that magnesium sulphate owing to its analgesic and sedative properties is not inferior to fentanyl in providing conscious sedation as adjuvants to propofol and local injection of lidocaine in patients undergoing surgery for evacuation of subdural haematoma. Consequently, the investigators are testing this hypothesis by comparing the sedative and analgesic effects of magnesium sulphate versus fentanyl as adjuvants to propofol lidocaine admixture for conscious sedation in patients undergoing burr hole surgery for evacuation of subdural haematoma.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the sedative, and analgesic effects of intranasal (IN) Dexmedetomidine (DEX) in children presenting to a Pediatric Emergency Department (PED) who undergo conscious sedation for reduction of closed distal forearm fractures when compared to those receiving intravenous (IV) Ketamine. The secondary objective is to compare each sedation technique for safety and procedural outcomes.
Conscious sedation is usually required during flexible bronchoscopy. Sedation should be done without causing respiratory depression or loss of consciousness. The present study was designed to evaluate the advantage of pregabalin pre-medication on reducing sedatives and respiratory depression for patients undergoing flexible bronchoscopy with dexmedetomidine and midazolam.
For patients with eye surgery and shorter surgery, sedation is a well-established method in preserved consciousness and has been successfully used for several years. We have also developed and published a valid protocol (1). Remifentanil is used in intravenous infusion for sedation and anxiolysis. Remifentanil is a descriptive analgesic, which also works partially anxiolytically. In eye surgery, it is important that the patient cooperates during the operation and should not be ashamed, as injury to the eye could occur, because the vitrectomes are performed with a fine intraocular endoscopic technique, in which the operator inserts his instruments through the whiteness into the eye. For this reason, we have not yet added additional sedatives (for example, midazolam), which is very unpredictable as regards sedation. Remifentanil is also very unpredictable and it is very difficult to control it during the operation so that the patient is saturated with satisfaction. Lately, dexmedetomidine has been successfully used in sedation for other areas of surgery (eg neurosurgery, maxillofacial surgery, ORL). It is a safe, proven, active substance with alpha 2 agonistic effect, which has not yet been used in the field of ocular surgery and has not yet published articles in this field. The substance is very suitable because it works mildly sedative and at the same time analgesic.
Objective of the study: to assess whether pharmacological sedation or general anesthesia for treatment of anterior circulation ischemic stroke with endovascular mechanical thrombectomy is associated with difference in morbidity (neurological outcome and peri-procedural complications).
The objective of this project is to compare the sedative effects of intranasal midazolam versus inhaled nitrous oxide (N2O) for minor procedures in the pediatric emergency department. The primary outcome will be length of stay (LOS) in the emergency department (ED) stay for minor procedures. Secondarily the investigators will compare patient/family and provider satisfaction while using either intranasal midazolam or N2O for minimal sedation. The investigators hypothesize that the total length of stay for children undergoing minor procedures in the ED will be lower for N2O, as compared to intranasal midazolam. The investigators also hypothesize that patient/family and provider satisfaction will be higher with N2O and adverse effects will not differ between N2O and intranasal midazolam. Patients will receive either intranasal midazolam or N2O for minor procedures. Following the enrollment period, data will be analyzed and the two will be compared. Total length of stay, patient/family and provider satisfaction will be studied.
