Filter by:Hypoxemia was defined as an SpO2 of < 90% for any duration. Failure to treat promptly can lead to hypoxemia, which may increase the risks of arrhythmia, nausea and vomiting, and cognitive dysfunction. Studies have shown that body position has a direct impact on respiratory function. In special environments, including outside the operating room where emergency airway management for critically ill and injured patients is needed, or in areas with limited medical resources like remote areas, adopting simple interventions by changing position to maintain patients' respiratory function can be more economical, convenient and safe.
The aim of the project was to compare the efficacy and safety of intranasal (IN) and intravenous (IV) dexmedetomidine (DEX) in procedural sedation for electroencephalogram (EEG) in pediatric patients with behavioural disorders. Single-centre comparative observational study in the tertiary care centre of Padua, regarding all consecutive pediatric patients affected by behavioural disorders, who needed sedation for EEG recording. A group of children received IV administration of DEX, the following year a second group of children received IN administration of the same drug. Target of sedation was level 2, according to the Paediatric Sedation State Scale (PSSS).
Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) is an endoscopic procedure performed to investigate conditions affecting the stomach, liver, and bile ducts, as well as for therapeutic interventions. The complexity of EUS can vary significantly, with increased complexity affecting procedure duration, technical success, and the occurrence of adverse events. For the comfort of patients and the success of the procedure, these interventions are typically performed under anesthesia with procedural sedation. To enhance the success rate of the procedure, reduce the risk of side effects, and maximize patient comfort, EUS is generally performed under sedation according to the recommendations of the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA). During sedation, the aim is for the patient to be more relaxed and comfortable while maintaining spontaneous respiratory function. Preserving spontaneous respiratory parameters is crucial for procedural safety.
"In intensive care units, therapeutic paralysis has been a routine treatment method for many years in a select group of patients. Sufficient and appropriate sedation in patients undergoing therapeutic paralysis is crucial to prevent awareness and reduce the risk of excessive sedation. Both inadequate and excessive sedation levels can be highly detrimental to the patient. Clinical assessment may not always provide accurate information regarding sedation depth. Recently, the frequency and workload of therapeutic paralysis treatment in intensive care units have increased due to COVID-19 pneumonia. Therefore, the investigators believe that inadequate sedation may be common in these patients. Processed electroencephalogram parameters such as bispectral index or patient state index (PSI), routinely used in operating rooms and intensive care units, are commonly used to indicate sedation depth. In this study, the investigators aimed to determine sedation levels in patients during paralysis, assess the prevalence of inadequate or excessive sedation, and observe the doses of sedatives and analgesics used."
OVERALL SYNOPSIS PART A: Systematic evaluation in spontaneously breathing healthy volunteer study participants - of cumulative duration of manual measures for airway patency and for mask ventilation with airway device prototype (STAIRWAY) vs. standard procedure (no device) during target-controlled induction of mild and moderate-to-deep sedation with propofol in the supine position - of minimum anteroposterior and lateral transpharyngeal distances at tongue-base and soft-palate levels, determined by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with STAIRWAY vs. biteblock or no device during no, mild and moderate-to-deep steady-state sedation with propofol in the supine position. PART B: Systematic evaluation (in the body position [normally supine] considered most optimal for the procedural intervention) of the cumulative duration - of adjuvant manual airway support and ventilation - of respiratory arrest (interrupted monitoring of endtidal carbon dioxide [ETCO2]) - of hypoxemia (hemoglobin saturation of oxygen [SpO2] <95 %), and - of perceived sedational comfort, of sedational and procedural usability, and of sedational and procedural preference with STAIRWAY vs. standard procedure (biteblock or no device) during PS according to SOC for scheduled diagnostic or therapeutic procedures planned to be carried out under PS with propofol in spontaneously breathing study patients.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare electroencephalogram (EEG) guided propofol sedation versus standard care in paediatric patients aged 6-16 undergoing oesophagogastroduodenoscopy and colonoscopy. The main questions it aims to answer are whether EEG guided propofol sedation will result in: - faster wake up time - reduced time to discharge - reduced cumulative propofol dosage - lower incidence of intraoperative adverse events - no difference in intraoperative undesirable movement - lower incidence and severity of emergence delirium - lower intraoperative depth of sedation Participants will wear an EEG sensor (Sedline) prior to undergoing propofol sedation until they wake up post procedure.
The aim is to evaluate the feasibility of MFI-11, one of the comprehensive frailty tests, before EBUS-TBNA. The secondary aim is to evaluate the usefulness of MFI-11 in predicting complications in risk assessment before EBUS-TBNA.
Deep procedural sedation has seen an increased use indication over the last couple of years aided by the introduction of high flow nasal oxygen therapy (HFNOT) during these procedures. However, this level of deep sedation does come with the increased risk of examining whether a patient is adequately ventilated during this procedure. The definition of deep sedation is: 'a drug-induced depression of consciousness during which patients cannot be easily aroused but respond purposefully following repeated or painful stimulation. The ability to independently maintain ventilatory function may be impaired. Patients may require assistance in maintaining a patent airway, and spontaneous ventilation may be inadequate. Cardiovascular function is usually maintained.' As the definition showed there may be an insufficient ventilation during deep sedation. Therefore, HFNOT is used to ensures that the peripheral oxygen saturation is sufficient. However, there are two potential disadvantages. HFNOT can mask the presence of an insufficient respiratory minute volume and an insufficient gas exchange, which can lead to high arterial CO2 (paCO2) levels. Another risk associated with HFNOT is the fact that high oxygen levels are toxic, and prolonged exposure to high partial oxygen pressures, can cause oxidative damage to cell membranes, collapse of the alveoli in the lungs, retinal detachment, and seizures. Most of this damage can be explained by hyperoxia that increases the 'leak' of electrons from the mitochondrial electron transport chain and the resulting increased generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Low paCO2 levels and hyperoxia cannot be examined using standard monitoring techniques therefore, this study will use the transcutaneous carbon dioxide (tcPCO2) a proven technique which correlates well to the arterial CO2 (paCO2) to evaluate whether there is an adequate level of ventilation during deep procedural anesthesia with HFNOT. Moreover, the cutaneous mitochondrial oxygenation (mitoPO2) will be monitored to determine the effects that deep procedural sedation with HFNOT has on the cellular oxygenation.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of opioids administered during sedation on patients' respiratory activity (ventilation) and comfort of the operator and patient during the endoscopic procedure. A common side effect of sedation is the effect on patients' ventilation, resulting from a combination of attenuation of respiratory centre activity and loss of patent airways. Shallow sedation will reduce these risks, but in addition to patient discomfort, it also increases the difficulty or impossibility of the endoscopist to perform the procedure. Choosing the appropriate method of sedation thus fundamentally affects the course of the procedure from the point of view of both the patient and the endoscopist. The aim is to prove that sedation with propofol alone compared to sedation with propofol and fentanyl premedication leads to the need for higher cumulative doses of administered propofol, higher risk of respiratory depression and lower patient and operator comfort. In addition, the non-invasive respiratory volume monitor (ExSpiron 2Xi) will be used for standard patient monitoring during the procedure, which assesses the lung tidal volume and respiratory rate by measuring the electrical impedance of the chest. This measurement captures inadequate ventilation before saturation drops, allowing even slight differences between selected drugs to be compared.
Investigators will include in our study patients aged 60 and over who have been evaluated in the pre-anesthesia clinic for procedures such as endoscopy, colonoscopy, ERCP, PEG, EUS, and ESD, and who have received sedation by an anesthesiologist. Patients will be assessed for frailty prior to the procedure; during and after the procedure, respiratory monitoring (SpO2, capnography) will be closely observed, and they will be contacted by phone three days later. Primary goal of the study is to prospectively investigate the incidence of peri-procedural complications (desaturation, bradycardia, hypotension, etc.) in elderly patients undergoing gastrointestinal procedural sedation, and to assess its relationship with detected frailty using the FRAIL scale.Secondary goals of the study are to identify risk factors for adverse events, examine the relationship of these factors with 'ASA score - age and frailty scale', and determine their impact on the incidence of adverse events. Additionally, investigators aim to research the effects of capnography-based respiratory monitoring on adverse events.
