Device: Capnography monitoring
Device: Standard monitoring
Registration Number
NCT05030870
Lead Sponsor
RenJi Hospital
Brief Summary

Hypoxia is the most common adverse event in gastrointestinal endoscopes sedated with propofol and sufentanil, especially in elderly people. The aim of this randomized study was to determine whether intervention based on additional capnographic monitoring reduces the incidence of hypoxia in gastrointestinal endoscopes procedures for elderly patients.

Capnographic monitoring groupCapnography monitoringIn this group, in addition to the standard monitoring including observation, pulse oxygen saturation, non-invasive blood pressure, electrocardiogram in selected patients, the capnographic is also monitored. The capnographic data of the patients are available for additional noninvasive assessment of ventilation.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The incidence of hypoxiaPatients will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 2 hours

(75% ≤ SpO2 \< 90% for \<60 s)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The incidence of sub-clinical respiratory depressionPatients will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average about 2 hours

(90% ≤ SpO2 \< 95%)

The incidence of capnography curve decreased by half or more than the baseline and even disappeared without hypoxiaPatients will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average about 2 hours
