Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to compare efficacy and safety of combination of propofol and midazolam with meperidine versus midazolam and meperidine for ambulatory ERCP

Detailed description

ERCP is commonly done under sedation with midazolam and meperidine, however some studies showed varying outcomes of this conventional sedation for maintained sedation. Propofol is increasing used for sedation in gastrointestinal procedure owing to its rapid recovery profiles but the complications associated with propofol are not negligible.The investigators prospectively compare the efficacy, induction time, recovery time, patient satisfaction and side effect between propofol based and conventional sedations in patients undergoing ERCP.

Interventions

DRUGPropofol

Propofol is the sedative drug used as an additional sedation to one of the study arm.

DRUGMidazolam

Midazolam is one of the two conventional sedative drugs included in both arms.

DRUGMeperidine

Meperidine is one of the two conventional sedative drugs included in both arms.

MeasureTime frameDescription
Procedure Related Timeparticipants will be followed for the duration of procedure, an expected average of 2.0 hours ](1) induction time ( the time from sedation to scope intubation ), (2) procedure time ( the time from scope intubation to scope withdrawal ) and (3) recovery time ( the time from scope withdrawal to full recovery ).The induction time, procedural time and recovery time were recorded by the nurse in the endoscopy unit.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Cardiovascular Adverse Events.participants will be followed for the duration of procedure, an expected average of 2.0 hours(1) desaturation(oxygen saturation \< 90 % at least 10 second ) (2) hypotension ( systolic blood pressure \< 90 mmHg or dropped more than 25 % of baseline ) (3)bradycardia (heart rate \< 50 beats/min) and (4) apnea ( cessation of respiratory activity for over 10 seconds ). When patients developed oxygen saturation \< 90 %, then nasal oxygen was administered, If patients not able to recover from oxygen therapy and tactile stimulations thus the procedure was terminated. The procedure was terminated if patients developed serious adverse event as heart rate below 5 beats/min and or apnea.

Recruitment details

Patients who were schedule for endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography in NKC Institute ,Prince of Songkla University during January 2010-December 2011

Pre-assignment details

Patients were excluded from the final analysis if the procedure was terminated due to technical reasons prior to attempted cannulation.

Participants by arm

ArmCount
Propofol,Midazolam and Meperidine
The propofol was given as initial bolus of 20 mg and then the dose was given 5-10 mg every 30-60 second.the dose of midazolam was 1 mg in patients below 70 years and 0.5 mg in patients ≥ 70 years and the dose of meperidine was fixed at 20 mg.

Midazolam and Meperidine
The initial dose of midazolam and meperidine were 2-5 mg iv and 25-50 mg iv respectively then the midazolam dose was given 0.5-1.0 mg iv and meperidine dose was given 5-10 mg iv every 2-3 minutes
