Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is mainly about the feasibility and rationality of moderate sedation combined with acupuncture anesthesia in the application of gastroscopy and colonoscopy ,Then we evaluate the effectiveness and advantages of the combination of acupuncture anesthesia and drug anesthesia.

Description:

With the increase of the proportion of the patients who crave for performing painless gastroscopy and colonoscopy in recent years, it is crucial to seek a more secure and effective method of anesthesia or sedation. At present, the universal anesthetic method on gastroscopy and colonoscopy in China is the general anesthesia without intubation which usually uses propofol and opioid analgesics,Although the satisfaction of patients is high, the incidence of anesthesia-related complications and drug-related adverse reactions is high .The incidence of adverse events during the gastroscopy and colonoscopy is high, and the medical expense of anesthesia is high. At present, more than 2/3 of the patients undergo painless gastroscopy or colonoscopy are middle-aged and elderly patients, so the overdose which prolongs the recovery time、discharge time of patients and reduces the recovery quality of patients is common. The moderate sedation, which fundmentally does not affect hemodynamics、autonomous respiration and protective reflexes, is incomparable to general anesthesia . And acupuncture anesthesia also acts as a safe anesthetic method can provide safer analgesic effect.Theoretically，the combination of both of them is a relatively perfect and safe painless method.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	patient satisfaction with sedation instrument,PSSI	The investigator 2 needs to use VAS scores to evaluate satisfaction about sedation feeling when they accepted gastroscopy and colonoscopy .The score ranges from 0 to10 and need patients evaluate it by themself when the gastroscopy or colonoscopy were finished.The score from 0 (extremely dissatisfied)to 10(extremely satisfied).	During gastroscopy and colonoscopy
Primary	clinical satisfaction with sedation instrument,CSSI	The investigator 2 needs to use VAS scores to evaluate satisfaction about doctors when they carry out the operation.The score from 0 (extremely dissatisfied)to 10(extremely satisfied).	During gastroscopy and colonoscopy
Primary	patient's pain score	The investigator 2 needs to use VAS scores to evaluate patients' pain score .The score from 0 (extremely dissatisfied)to 10(extremely satisfied).	During gastroscopy and colonoscopy
Secondary	the extent of cardia exposure	The investigator 2 needs to record the extent of cardia exposure to evaluate these interventions'effect on gastroscopy ,the investigator 2 use the table of the extent of preventriculus exposure(score from 1 to 4,1=the extent of exposure lower than 25%;2=the extent of exposure between 25% and 50%;3=the extent of exposure between 50%and 75%;4=the extent of exposure between 75%and 100%)	During gastroscopy and colonoscopy
