Ciprofol Versus Propofol in Patients Undergoing Painless Hysteroscopy

Not Applicable
Not yet recruiting
Conditions
Painless Hysteroscopy
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT06413862
Lead Sponsor
Baoding First Central Hospital
Brief Summary

Ciprofol exhibits comparable efficacy to that of propofol, and is associated with less injection pain rate, fewer adverse events, higher patient satisfaction, and more stable hemodynamics when used for general anesthesia during the painless hysteroscopy.

Detailed Description

In this study, we found that sedation success rate was 100% in both ciprofol group and propofol group during the painless hysteroscopy. The incidence rate of injection pain and the intensity of pain in the ciprofol group were significantly lower than the propofol group. Also, the ciprofol group had lower incidence rate and severity level of adverse events and higher patient satisfaction. In addition, SBP, DBP, and MAP values in propofol group were found to be significantly lower than those in ciprofol group at the time of cervical dilation and of consciousness recovery.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Injection pain24 hours within hysteroscopy

The injection pain was defined as the pain reported verbally by patients during the first injection of the investigational drugs (ciprofol or propofol). The Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) was used to evaluate the pain level. The anesthesiologist asks the patient during the first injection of the investigational drug (ciprofol or propofol), "Do you feel arm pain from the injection? Patients who answered "yes" was asked to describe the level of the pain (a score of 0 to 10 indicated "painless" to "unbearable pain"). The pain level was divided into painless (0 points), mild pain (1-3 points), and moderate to severe pain (4-10 points).

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
times of supplementing ciprofol or propofol24 hours within hysteroscopy

times of supplementing ciprofol or propofol

recovery time24 hours within hysteroscopy

the time from the last administration of investigational drugs to awaken

adverse events24 hours within hysteroscopy

nausea, vomiting, hypoxemia (blood oxygen saturation \< 90% and lasting \> 30 seconds), bradycardia (heart rate \< 55 beats/minute), hypotension (systolic blood pressure reduced by 20% compared to baseline), body movement (patient's unconscious limb movements) during the examination

Anesthesia success rate24 hours within hysteroscopy

the absence of any alternative sedatives/anesthetic drugs after the initial administration of the investigational drugs

Sedation success rate24 hours within hysteroscopy

No more than 5 supplementary doses within 15 minutes

use of rescue drugs24 hours within hysteroscopy

ephedrine, atropine

time for successful anesthesia induction24 hours within hysteroscopy

the time from starting the administration of investigational drugs to the MOAA/S score ≤ 1

comparison of vital signs before and after administration24 hours within hysteroscopy

The systolic blood pressure in mmHg, diastolic blood pressure in mmHg, mean arterial pressure in mmHg, blood oxygen saturation in %, and heart rate in bpm were recorded before anesthesia induction (T0), after anesthesia induction (T1), at cervical dilation (T2), and at consciousness recovery (T3)

severity level of adverse events24 hours within hysteroscopy

graded based the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for the Classification of Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0, and divided into grade 1 (mild), grade 2 (moderate), grade 3 (severe or medically significant but not immediately life threatening), grade 4 (events with life-threatening consequences needing urgent intervention), grade 5 (death related to the adverse events)

patient satisfaction24 hours within hysteroscopy

using a 10-point scale, with 1 point indicating extreme dissatisfaction and 10 points indicating very satisfied
