About this study

The purpose of this study is to explore how the timing of procedural sedation medications influences patient comfort and satisfaction with sedation.

Participation in this study will included be randomly assigned to one of two groups (long and short) within standard of care. Each group will observe a time interval between receiving procedural sedation medications and the start of the procedure. A trained observer will evaluate patient experience during the procedure and at the end of the procedure we will ask the participant 3 brief questions about the experience. All other information collected about the experience during the procedure will occur as part of usual care. No further activities will be asked as part of this study. All study activities will occur during a scheduled visit and participation is complete once questions have been answered.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

Study groups in NCT04490369
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Group 1- short intervalLess than or equal to six minutes between receiving sedation and the start of the procedure
Group 2- long intervalGreater than or equal to seven minutes between receiving sedation and the start of the procedure

What is being measured

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

  1. Total medication administration dosage as measured by the procedural database

    Measured: During procedure, up to 2.5 hours

  2. Frequency of medication administration as measured by the procedural database

    Measured: During procedure, up to 2.5 hours

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Patient satisfaction as measured by Procedural Sedation Assessment Survey (PROSAS)

    Measured: Within 2 hours of procedure

  2. Pain as measured by observation using the Behavioral Pain Assessment Tool (BPAT)

    Measured: During procedure, to 2.5 hours
