Brief summary

Hypoxia is the most common adverse event in gastrointestinal endoscopes sedated with propofol and sufentanil, especially in elderly people. The aim of this randomized study was to determine whether intervention based on additional capnographic monitoring reduces the incidence of hypoxia in gastrointestinal endoscopes procedures for elderly patients.

Interventions

Standard monitoring and capnographic monitoring.

Standard monitoring but no capnographic monitoring

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
The incidence of hypoxiaPatients will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 2 hours(75% ≤ SpO2 \< 90% for \<60 s)

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
The incidence of sub-clinical respiratory depressionPatients will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average about 2 hours(90% ≤ SpO2 \< 95%)
The incidence of severe hypoxiaPatients will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average about 2 hours(SpO2 \< 75% or 75% ≤ SpO2 \< 90% for \>/=60 s)
The incidence of capnography curve decreased by half or more than the baseline and even disappeared without hypoxiaPatients will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average about 2 hourscapnography curve decreased by half or more than the baseline and even disappeared, SpO2 \>90%
The incidence of other adverse eventsPatients will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average about 2 hoursOther adverse events recorded by tools proposed by the World Society of Intravenous Anesthesia International Sedation Task Force
