About this study
Remimazolam has shown promising results for sedation in colonoscopy . Alfentanil is widely used in the analgesia of ERCP . The purpose of the study was to determine the median effective dose of remimazolam for duodenoscopy insertion during ERCP with alfentanil 10µg/kg.
Read the detailed description
- Title:The median effective dose of remimazolam for duodenoscopy insertion during ERCP with alfentanil 10µg/kg.
- Research center: Single center.
- The population of the study: Age is between 18 and 85 years; ASA I andIII levels; Patients undergone elective ERCP surgery, non-intubation patients;
- Sample size:The sample size was decided based on that of prior literature, which had demonstrated that at least six independent pairs with success/failure duodenoscopy insertion during ERCP are required for reliable estimates of the ED50 of remimazolam with the Dixon's up-and-down method, and data from seven independent pairs of patients were collected for this study. The ED50 (95% confidence interval, CI) of remimazolam for successful duodenoscopy insertion during ERCP was calculated according to the formula of Dixon and Massey.
- Interventions:The dose of remimazolam for each patient was determined by the response of the previously tested patients using the modified Dixon's up-and-down method.The first patient was tested at 0.2mg/kg remimazolam (0.025mg/kg as a step size). Duodenoscopy insertion was conducted when MOAA/S≤1.The response of the patients to the duodenoscopy insertion during ERCP was categorized as either 'success (no movement)' or 'failure (movement).' Movement was defined duodenoscopy insertion a failure was as gross purposeful muscular movement, coughing or vomiting occurring during or within 2 minutes of insertion of duodenoscopy. No movement was depicted when the reactions mentioned earlier were absent.If BIS>75 and MOAA/S > 1 when 3 min after the intravenous injection of remimazolam, it was considered a failure, and the patient received rescue sedation..

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.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

What does the primary outcome measure?
The number of success duodenoscopy insertion (time frame: 1 day). 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 10 Jan 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
