About this study

Official title: A Comparison of Dexmedetomidine Versus Midazolam for Conscious Sedation During Endobronchial Ultrasound Guided Transbronchial Needle Aspiration (EBUS-TBNA)

  1. Appropriate sedation is needed for medical diagnosis, treatment, and the safety for patients. In non-surgical approaches, benzodiazepines are broadly used for ideal sedated status for patients.
  • However, especially in bronchoscope procedure, continuous monitoring of oxygen saturation is needed to prevent hypoxia due to respiratory distress induced by benzodiazepine.
  • A alpha-2 agonist, dexmedetomidine, which has similar sedative effect, but has less adverse effect of respiratory distress compared to previous agents, was introduced.

  1. It is necessary to compare the efficacy and safety of dexmedetomidine with that of midazolam in ultrasound guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA).
  • Double blind randomized trial
  • Primary outcome: The number and duration of desaturation, volume of sedative, any use of rescue midazolam, and Ramsay Sedation Scale (RSS) score (for efficacy), and hypertension, tachycardia, any need for mandible support or manual ventilation, and any need for intubation (for safety).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The number of Desaturation events

    The number of desaturation (SpO2 <90% for more than 5 seconds) events

    Measured: Patient followed for the entire duration of EBUS-TBNA and until discharge of bronchoscopy room, an expected average of 2 hours

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. RSS score

    RSS score: at the beginning of the procedure, minimum RSS score, every 5 minute

    Measured: Patient followed for the entire duration of EBUS-TBNA and until discharge of bronchoscopy room, an expected average of 2 hours

  2. Total dose of intratracheal lidocaine instillation

    Cumulative dose of lidocaine administered at bronchus by the endoscopist for local anesthesia by topical instillation.

    Topical lidocaine instillation is performed in both the two arms for procedure as routine bronchoscopy.

    Measured: Patient followed for the entire duration of EBUS-TBNA and until discharge of bronchoscopy room, an expected average of 2 hours

  3. Endoscopist satisfaction

    Endoscopist global satisfaction score based on a VAS score

    Measured: Patient followed for the entire duration of EBUS-TBNA and until discharge of bronchoscopy room

  4. Patient satisfaction

    Global patient satisfaction associated with the procedure. Score based on a VAS score measured before the patients leave the bronchoscopy room.

    Measured: Patient followed for the entire duration of EBUS-TBNA and until discharge of bronchoscopy room, an expected average of 2 hours

  5. Use of rescue midazolam

    Use of rescue midazolam, total dose

    Measured: Patient followed for the entire duration of EBUS-TBNA and until discharge of bronchoscopy room, an expected average of 2 hours

  6. Duration of desaturation (sec)

    Measured: Patient followed for the entire duration of EBUS-TBNA, an expected average of 2 hours

  7. Hemodynamic adverse event

    Hypotension ( < mean BP 60 mmHg) Bradycardia ( < 50 bpm)

    Measured: Patient followed for the entire duration of EBUS-TBNA and until discharge of bronchoscopy room, an expected average of 2 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing midazolam and Dexmedetomidine in people with Endobronchial Ultrasound Guided Transbronchial Needle Aspiration, run by Seoul National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 May 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The number of Desaturation events (time frame: Patient followed for the entire duration of EBUS-TBNA and until discharge of bronchoscopy room, an expected average of 2 hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02157818, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 May 2017.
