Dexmedetomidine sedation for endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration, a randomised controlled trial.

ABSTRACT:

Background and aim

Appropriate sedation is important to the success of endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA). Dexmedetomidine is a sedative agent that operates via the ?2 adrenergic agonist, which provides sleep-like sedation with little respiratory suppression. This study compared the efficacy and safety of dexmedetomidine sedation with propofol in cases of EBUS-TBNA.

Methods

Patients requiring EBUS-TBNA were randomly assigned dexmedetomidine sedation (D, n=25) or propofol sedation (P, n=25). Vital signs, diagnostic yield and the bispectral index (BIS) were recorded throughout the bronchoscopic procedure and recovery period. The tolerance and cooperation of the patients were evaluated using questionnaires.

Measurements and results

The lowest mean arterial blood pressure in group D (79.2±9.9 versus 72.5±12.9?mmHg, p=0.049) exceeded that in group P, the lowest heart rate was lower (60.9±10.2 versus 71.4±11.8?beats·min^-1, p=0.006) and the mean BIS during sedation was significantly higher (84.1±8.3 versus 73.6±5.7, p<0.001). Patients in group D were more likely to report perceiving procedure-related symptoms and express an unwillingness to undergo the bronchoscopy again, if indicated (41.1 versus 83.3%, p=0.007). One subject in group D aborted EBUS-TBNA due to intolerance. Many of the variables in the two groups were similar, including the proportion of hypoxaemic events, recovery times, patient cooperation and diagnostic yield.

Conclusions

The effects of dexmedetomidine on haemodynamics were in line with its pharmacodynamic features. Patients who received dexmedetomidine were more likely than those who received propofol to perceive the procedures. Overall, dexmedetomidine did not prove inferior to propofol sedation in terms of patient cooperation or diagnostic yield.

Project description:BackgroundEndobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) is an invasive procedure that required deep sedation to suppress coughing and body movements. Deep sedation, on the other hand, has been shown to cause respiratory and circulatory depression, especially when the airway is shared with the endoscopist. Esketamine is a novel sedative and analgesic with little respiratory inhibition that appears to be an appropriate adjuvant in propofol sedation for EBUS-TBNA. We compared the efficacy and safety of esketamine combined with propofol target-controlled infusion (TCI) and propofol TCI for deep sedation in EBUS-TBNA.MethodsThe study included 135 patients with ASA II-III undergoing EBUS-TBNA. They were randomly divided into two groups (group E and group P). Both groups received midazolam (0.01-0.03 mg/kg) and oxycodone (0.07-0.08 mg/kg). Then, patients in group E received 0.3 mg/kg esketamine, propofol TCI, and 0.2 mg·kg-1·h-1 esketamine for sedative maintenance. Patients in group P received only propofol TCI. The primary outcome was the dose of 1% lidocaine administrated by the endoscopist and the times of lidocaine sprays. Secondary outcome indicators were cough score, propofol dosage, patient satisfaction, endoscopist satisfaction, the incidence of sedation-related adverse effects and side effects, and recovery time.ResultsPatients in group E were given significantly less lidocaine (4.36 ml/h (2.67-6.00) vs 6.00 ml/h (4.36-7.20), P < 0.001) and less spraying frequency (2.18 times/h (1.33-3.00) vs 3.00 times/h (2.18-3.60), P < 0.001) than group P. There was a statistically significant difference in cough score between the two groups (group E 2 (0-4) vs group P 3 (2-4), P=0.03). Also, mean arterial pressure (MAP) was higher in group E in the 30th min (T5, 84.10 ± 12.91 mmHg versus 79.04 ± 10.01 mmHg, P=0.012) and 40th min (T6, 87.72 ± 15.55 mmHg versus 82.14 ± 10.51 mmHg, P=0.026). There were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of sedation-related adverse events and side effects, recovery time, endoscopist satisfaction, and patient satisfaction.ConclusionsIn patients with ASA II-III, esketamine as an adjuvant in combination with propofol TCI deep sedation for EBUS-TBNA can improve the sedation effect, reduce coughing reaction during the procedure, and obtain more stable blood pressure. No reduction in the occurrence of sedation-related side effects was observed. This trial is registered with ChiCTR2200061124.
