Registration Number
NCT05103696
Lead Sponsor
Peking University People's Hospital
Brief Summary

Studies have shown that etomidate combined with propofol in gastroscopy has high safety and lower incidence of hypoxia and hypotension, suggesting the advantages of etomidate combined with propofol in elderly patients.

Remimazolam Besylate is a 1.1 class new drug that acts on GABA receptors and is metabolized by plasma esterase with fast metabolism time, only 1/7 of midazolam, which may be more suitable for elderly patients. Therefore, this study intends to explore the safety and effectiveness of two sedation schemes in gastroenteroscopy for elderly patients.

Detailed Description

Before starting the endoscopy procedures, patients were randomly assigned to either Remimazolam Besylate group or propofol combined with etomidate group. The onset time, recovery time, vital signs, postoperative recovery, cognitive function and adverse events were compared.

Remimazolam groupRemimazolam BesylatePatients received remimazolam to maintain sufficient sedation (sufficient sedation as judged by MOAA/S ≤ 4 for 3 consecutive measurements) during endoscopy procedure. And patients were injected remifentanil 0.3μg/kg (infusion time \> 1min) at the first time,When the analgesia was insufficient, Remifentanil can be added according to the situation.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
induction timeday 0

The time from the beginning of the drug injection to the time when the patient does not respond to the verbal call

Recovery timeday 0

First of 3 consecutive MOAA/S scores of 5 after the last injection of study drug

Modified Observer's Assessment of Alertness/Sedation[MOAA/S]day 0

MOAA/S score ranges from 0 to 5 points, 0 point means patients do not respond to noxious stimulation; 5 point means patients responds readily to name spoken in normal tone. When the Modified Observer's Assessment of Alertness/ Sedation \[MOAA/S\] ≤4 that patients are sufficiently sedated.

Observation time in the PACUday 0

the time interval between "endoscope removal" and "departure from the recovery room" (PADS score≥9)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Simple Intelligence Assessment Scale (mini-cog)Every 4 hours, up to 1 week

1. Ask the subjects to listen carefully and memorize 3 unrelated words, and then repeat (Apple, Watch, Coin);

2. Ask the subjects to draw the shape of the clock on a blank sheet of paper, and give the subject a time to mark it on the clock (the CDT of the clock drawing test is correct; it can correctly indicate the sequence of the digits and display the given Fixed time);

3. Ask the subject to say the 3 words given previously.

Drug dosagesday 0
