Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Successful sedation assessed using the Procedural Sedation Assessment Survey (PROSAS) at 30 minutes after awakening in the recovery area. “In accordance with patients’ priorities, procedural sedation was judged as successful when there was no adverse event, no issues with sedation leading to an incomplete procedure, when patient-reported procedural discomfort was scored 2 or less, and the patient was comfortable with the level of sedation obtained with a sedation preference score of between -2 and 2” | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1. Pain measured using the numerical rating scale 0-10 at awakening, 15, 30, 45, 60 minutes and just before discharge 2. Nausea measured by asking Yes or No at awakening, 15, 30, 45, 60 minutes and just before discharge 3. Vomiting measured by asking Yes or No at awakening, 15, 30, 45, 60 minutes and just before discharge 4. Surgeon satisfaction with the sedation-pain relief during ovum pick up measured using the numerical rating scale after completing the oocyte retrieval procedure 5. Hypotension/hypertension (systolic blood pressure [SBP] 160 mmHg) measured using automated blood pressure during procedures and upon awakening, 15, 30, 45, 60 minutes and just before discharge 6. Tachycardia/bradycardia (heart rate > 120/min or < 50/min) measured using automated pulse oximetry during procedures and upon awakening, 15, 30, 45, 60 minutes and just before discharge 7. Oxygen desaturation (any episode of desaturation <90% on pulse oximetry) measured using automated pulse oximetry during procedures and upon awakening, 15, 30, 45, 60 minutes and just before discharge 8. Number of oocytes retrieved and charted using the standardised form provided in the Fertility Unit during the procedure, and the result will be obtained on completion of embryologist report | — |
