Brief summary

This study aims to compare the effects of conscious sedation and intravenous general anesthesia on cardiovascular events in frail patients undergoing digestive endoscopy diagnosis and treatment.

Detailed description

This study aims to compare the effects of conscious sedation and intravenous general anesthesia on cardiovascular events in frail patients undergoing digestive endoscopy diagnosis and treatment. Both sets of anesthesia plans completed preoperative evaluations, including blood count, coagulation function, liver and kidney function, and cardiopulmonary function. Routine monitoring of electrocardiograms (ECG), non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP), pulse oximetry (SpO2), open veins, and administration of a balance solution of 3-5ml/kg. h. The conscious sedation group (Group A) received sufentanil 0.05-0.1 5 minutes before examination μ G/kg, administration time 30 seconds, 1-2 mg of midazolam administered 2 minutes before examination; Evaluate the patient's MOAA/S score, insert a digestive endoscope at 2-3 minutes, and add 1-2mg of midazolam if the patient is unable to tolerate coughing or movement during the examination. Reevaluate the MOAA/S score, and continue the operation after 2-3 minutes; Intravenous general anesthesia group (Group B): sufentanil 0.05-0.1 μ G/kg, administration time 30 seconds, 1mg/kg of propofol administered 2 minutes before examination. Depending on the patient's sleep status, 10mg of propofol can be administered every 30 seconds; Evaluate the patient's MOAA/S score. At 0-1 points, a digestive endoscope is inserted. If there is coughing or physical activity during the examination that the patient cannot tolerate, propofol 10-20mg can be administered multiple times. Evaluate the MOAA/S score again, and continue the operation after 0-1 points. All anesthetics should be discontinued before the end of the surgery. Since the examination, blood pressure should be measured every 2 minutes, while HR, SpO2, and RR should be recorded to observe if there are any abnormalities in the electrocardiogram. If there are any abnormalities, please explain until the endoscope is removed from the dental pad. Record the satisfaction of gastroenterologists, anesthesiologists, and patients after surgery. Follow up patients by phone within three days after surgery to determine the incidence of adverse events (dizziness, headache, palpitations, wheezing, mobility, nausea and vomiting).

Interventions

PROCEDUREThe conscious sedation group

The conscious sedation group (Group A) received sufentanil 0.05-0.1 5 minutes before examination μ G/kg, administration time 30 seconds, 1-2 mg of midazolam administered 2 minutes before examination; Evaluate the patient's MOAA/S score, insert a digestive endoscope at 2-3 minutes, and add 1-2mg of midazolam if the patient is unable to tolerate coughing or movement during the examination. Reevaluate the MOAA/S score, and continue the operation after 2-3 minutes;

PROCEDUREIntravenous general anesthesia group

Intravenous general anesthesia group (Group B): sufentanil 0.05-0.1 μ G/kg, administration time 30 seconds, 1mg/kg of propofol administered 2 minutes before examination. Depending on the patient's sleep status, 10mg of propofol can be administered every 30 seconds; Evaluate the patient's MOAA/S score. At 0-1 points, a digestive endoscope is inserted. If there is coughing or physical activity during the examination that the patient cannot tolerate, propofol 10-20mg can be administered multiple times. Evaluate the MOAA/S score again, and continue the operation after 0-1 points.

Masking description

On the premise of ensuring clinical work and safety, in order to objectively evaluate the research results, the single blind method is reasonably used in this project. Patients are unaware of the anesthesia plan, and preoperative data collection and implementation of the anesthesia plan are carried out by experienced anesthesiologists who have undergone detailed training. Postoperative PACU clinical data and postoperative follow-up were followed up by another anesthesiologist who was unaware of the trial group over the phone.

Intervention model description

Using a stratified randomization method, the candidate subjects were divided into two groups: the conscious sedation group (Group A); Intravenous general anesthesia group (Group B); There are 113 cases in each group, with a total of 226 cases in both groups. The computer generated random group numbers will be printed and placed in a separate sealed envelope. When accepting subjects who meet the inclusion criteria, the anesthesiologist will assign the newly recruited subjects to the corresponding groups based on the number in the envelope, and the anesthesiologist will be responsible for recording the physiological characteristics of the patients. Another anesthesiologist followed up the patient after the surgery. Both the follow-up doctor and the patient are unaware of the treatment plan. In emergency situations, anesthesiologists can change the anesthesia method to ensure clinical safety and truthfully record it.
