About this study

Official title: Comparison of Techniques to Improve Oxygenation and Capnographic Detection During Sedative Gastrointestinal Endoscopy

The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of mandibular advancement bite block and high flow nasal cannula to standard bite block for oxygenation, capnographic measurement, prevention of hypoxemia, intervention events and adverse effects during endoscopic examinations.

Read the detailed description

During endoscopic examinations, especially during those performed via oral insertion of endoscopes, an oral bite is used to protect the examination instruments and patients. During sedated endoscopic examinations, the patients are under influence of anesthetics. Upper airway obstruction often occurred due to respiratory depression and airway collapse resulting in desaturation. Airway management with high percentage oxygen, jaw thrust, or insertion of nasal airways by trained anesthetic personnel is required during upper airway obstruction emergencies. Nasal airway is invasive and causes nasal bleeding, sinusitis and other problems. Jaw thrust and bag-mask ventilation requires training and is a burden to anesthetic personnel to perform. Oxygenation and capnography are important ventilatory monitors during sedative procedures. These are often influenced by open mouth breathing during upper gastrointestinal endoscopic examinations making oxygenation and capnographic measurements unreliable. In this study, we group the patients into A group using standard of care, B group using mandibular advancement oral bite and C group using high-flow nasal cannulas. After anesthetic induction, gastric endoscopy will be performed. Oxygenation, end-tidal carbon dioxide, and degree of upper airway obstruction will be evaluated and recorded. Differences between the groups will be evaluated.

What is being measured

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

  1. Area under the curve of 95% oxygen desaturation (AUCdesat)

    AUCdesat is defined as the integrated area under oxygen saturation (SPO2) for a selected cut point per 30 seconds, which better reflects the duration and severity of hypoxemia than the lowest saturation

    Measured: From time of first sedative medication given until the time of discharge from recovery room, assessed up to 1 hour

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Number of rescue interventions

    Number of rescue interventions counted if any of the following procedures are performed, such as sustained chin lift or jaw thrust, insertion of an oral or nasal airway or bag-mask ventilation.

    Measured: From time of first sedative medication given until the time of discharge from recovery room, assessed up to 1 hour

  2. Number of apnea episodes

    Number of apnea episodes, which are number of times which the patient lack respiratory activity and loss of ETCO2 detection greater for 30 seconds occurs.

    Measured: From time of first sedative medication given until the time of discharge from recovery room, assessed up to 1 hour

  3. Number of partial airway obstruction episodes

    Number of partial airway obstruction episodes, which are number of times grunting or snoring with positive ETCO2 measurement greater than 30 secs occurs.

    Measured: From time of first sedative medication given until the time of discharge from recovery room, assessed up to 1 hour

  4. Number of total airway obstruction episodes

    Number of total airway obstruction episodes, which are number of times loss of ETCO2 detection while in presence of respiratory activity greater than 30 secs occurs.

    Measured: From time of first sedative medication given until the time of discharge from recovery room, assessed up to 1 hour

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Olympus standard bite block, YX mandibular advancement bite block and Optiflow High flow nasal cannula in people with Upper Airway Obstruction and Apnea, Obstructive, run by Taipei Veterans General Hospital, Taiwan at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 1 inclusion and 5 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 11 Jul 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 Taiwan. 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?

Area under the curve of 95% oxygen desaturation (AUCdesat) (time frame: From time of first sedative medication given until the time of discharge from recovery room, assessed up to 1 hour). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 11 Jul 2017.
