About this study
Official title: Safety and Efficacy of Dexmedetomidine in Painless Colonoscopy: a Single-center, Randomized Study
104 patients who undergo painless colonoscopy from Decemenber 1,2019 to June 30,2022 will be randomized to two groups: propofol group and dexmedetomidine group.
In the dexmedetomidine group,dexmedetomidine was infusion intravenously with a loading dose of 0.5 μg kg-1 for 10 min, then infusion at 0.3 μg kg-1 h-1 according to the ideal body weight of the patient until the end of colonoscopy. In the propofol group, Propofol was administrated 1 mg kg-1 intravenously, then titrated given by 0.5 mg kg-1 during the whole process.

104 patients who undergo painless colonoscopy from Decemenber 1,2019 to June 30,2022 will be randomized to two groups: propofol group and dexmedetomidine group.
In the dexmedetomidine group,dexmedetomidine was infusion intravenously with a loading dose of 0.5 μg kg-1 for 10 min, then infusion at 0.3 μg kg-1 h-1 according to the ideal body weight of the patient until the end of colonoscopy. In the propofol group, Propofol was administrated 1 mg kg-1 intravenously, then titrated given by 0.5 mg kg-1.For all patients, if Ramsay sedation scale score reached 3, colonoscope was inserted. During the whole process, maintenance Ramsay score of 3 to 4. Propofol 10 mg was administrated as the rescue dose if body movement occurred during colonoscopy
The primary outcome was the occurrence of hypotension. Secondary outcomes included the followings:(1) the duration and the maximum decreasing in BP. The time-weighted average which is measured by calculating the area under the threshold (AUT) divided by the total duration of colonoscopy. AUT = (depth of hypotension below a 20% decrease in systolic blood pressure or diastolic blood pressure from pre-procedure baseline or SBP of 90 mm Hg or DBP of 50 mm Hg× time in minutes spent of hypotension); (2) the incidence of bradycardia and hypoxemia, mask-assisted ventilation and body movement;(3) the discharge time , patients and endoscopists satisfaction score.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Dexmedetomidine groupDrug
Also called Dexmedetomidine Hydrochloride group
In the dexmedetomidine group, dexmedetomidine was infusion intravenously with a loading dose of 0.5 μg kg-1 for 10 min, then infusion at 0.3 μg kg-1 h-1 according to the ideal body weight of the patient until the end of colonoscopy. If Ramsay sedation scale score reached 3, colonoscope was inserted. During the whole process, maintenance Ramsay score of 3 to 4. Propofol 10 mg was administrated as the rescue dose if body movement occurred during colonoscopy. In the propofol group, propofol was administrated 1 mg kg-1 intravenously, then titrated given by 0.5 mg kg-1 until Ramsay score reached 3. During the whole process, propofol was given intermittently to maintain Ramsay score 3 to 4. If body movement happened, propofol 10mg was administrated every time.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
The primary outcome is the occurrence of hypotension
Hypotension is defined as a 20% decrease in systolic blood pressure or diastolic blood pressure from pre-procedure baseline, systolic blood pressure < 90 mmHg, and/or diastolic blood pressure < 50 mmHg
Measured: The time during gastroscopy, an average of 12 minutes
Secondary outcomes (8)
The duration and the maximum decreasing in BP
The time-weighted average which is measured by calculating the area under the threshold (AUT) divided by the total duration of colonoscopy. AUT = (depth of hypotension below a 20% decrease in systolic blood pressure or diastolic blood pressure from pre-procedure baseline or SBP of 90 mm Hg or DBP of 50 mm Hg× time in minutes spent of hypotension)
Measured: The time during gastroscopy, an average of 12 minutes
The incidence of bradycardia
Bradycardia is defined as HR <50 beats/min
Measured: The time during gastroscopy, an average of 12 minutes
The incidence of hypoxemia
Hypoxemia is defined as a decrease of SpO2 to <90%
Measured: The time during gastroscopy, an average of 12 minutes
The incidence of mask-assisted ventilation
Mask ventilation is performed if the hypoxemia happened
Measured: The time during gastroscopy, an average of 12 minutes
The incidence of body movement
Body movement is defined as the twisting of the patient's body due to the stimulation of the endoscopy, making it difficult to proceed with the procedure without additional propofol
Measured: The time during gastroscopy, an average of 12 minutes
The discharge time
The discharge time is calculated from the end of colonoscopy to discharge
Measured: From the end of colonoscopy to discharge,an average of 30 minutes
Patients satisfaction score
Using an 11-point Likert scale, with 0 indicating "very dissatisfied" and 10 indicating "very satisfied"
Measured: When the patient is fully awake after colonoscopy,an average of 5 minutes
Endoscopists satisfaction score
Using an 11-point Likert scale, with 0 indicating "very dissatisfied" and 10 indicating "very satisfied"
Measured: At the end of colonoscopy
