Effect of Continuous Integrated Pulmonary Index Monitoring on the Incidence of Hypoxemia in Elderly Patients With Painless Colonoscopy

This study is a single-center, double-blind, prospective, randomized controlled trial. In this experiment, all patients who met the inclusion criteria and did not meet any of the exclusion criteria were divided into SpO2 group (group C) and IPI group (group P) according to 1:1 by computer random number method. After entering the examination room, the two groups of patients signed the informed consent form and underwent vital sign monitoring. Anesthesia process: propofol 1~ 2mg/kg, Intraoperatively, vasoactive drugs such as norepinephrine or ephedrine are used as needed. Group C: SpO2 of the patient's right index finger was monitored with a fingertip oximeter. When the SpO2 decreases by 5% compared with the basic SpO2, the patient's jaw is immediately propped up, and the oxygen flow rate increases to 6L·min-1, and if the SpO2 continues to decrease by <90%, the anesthesia mask is pressurized and ventilated. Group P: Fingertip oximetry was used to monitor the SpO2 of the patient's right index finger, and the patient's PETCO2 was monitored with nasal cannula bypass, and when the IPI was ≤6, The patient's jaw is immediately lifted, the oxygen flow rate is increased to 6L·min-1, and if the SpO2 continues to decrease by <90%, the anesthesia mask is pressurized and ventilated. Vital signs (blood pressure, heart rate, pulse oximetry or IPI), medication (propofol or vasoactive), anesthesia time and adverse events were recorded in both groups.
