About this study

Official title: Safety and Efficacy of Remazolam in Gastroenteroscopy in Elderly Patients

Studies have shown that etomidate combined with propofol in gastroscopy has high safety and lower incidence of hypoxia and hypotension, suggesting the advantages of etomidate combined with propofol in elderly patients.

Remimazolam Besylate is a 1.1 class new drug that acts on GABA receptors and is metabolized by plasma esterase with fast metabolism time, only 1/7 of midazolam, which may be more suitable for elderly patients. Therefore, this study intends to explore the safety and effectiveness of two sedation schemes in gastroenteroscopy for elderly patients.

Read the detailed description

Before starting the endoscopy procedures, patients were randomly assigned to either Remimazolam Besylate group or propofol combined with etomidate group. The onset time, recovery time, vital signs, postoperative recovery, cognitive function and adverse events were compared.

Being tested
Remimazolam Besylate, etomidate combined with propofol

What participants receive

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

  • Remimazolam BesylateDrug

    Remazolam 7mg for the first time (push time 1min), 2.5mg can be added after 2min according to MOAA/S score, no more than 5 times within 15min

  • etomidate combined with propofolDrug

    Etomidate 0.1mg/kg+1% propofol 0.5mg/kg for the first time ,etomidate0.05mg/kg+ 1% propofol 0.25 mg/kg can be added according to MOAA/S score

Study groups in NCT05103696
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Remimazolam groupExperimentalPatients received remimazolam to maintain sufficient sedation (sufficient sedation as judged by MOAA/S ≤ 4 for 3 consecutive measurements) during endoscopy procedure. And patients were injected remifentanil 0.3μg/kg (infusion time > 1min) at the first time,When the analgesia was insufficient, Remifentanil can be added according to the situation.
Receives: Drug: Remimazolam Besylate
EP groupActive comparatorPatients received Etomidate combined with propofol to maintain sufficient sedation (sufficient sedation as judged by MOAA/S ≤ 4 for 3 consecutive measurements) during endoscopy procedure. And patients were injected remifentanil 0.3μg/kg (infusion time > 1min) at the first time.When the analgesia was insufficient,Remifentanil can be added according to the situation

What is being measured

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

  1. induction time

    The time from the beginning of the drug injection to the time when the patient does not respond to the verbal call

    Measured: day 0

  2. Recovery time

    First of 3 consecutive MOAA/S scores of 5 after the last injection of study drug

    Measured: day 0

  3. Modified Observer's Assessment of Alertness/Sedation[MOAA/S]

    MOAA/S score ranges from 0 to 5 points, 0 point means patients do not respond to noxious stimulation; 5 point means patients responds readily to name spoken in normal tone. When the Modified Observer's Assessment of Alertness/ Sedation [MOAA/S] ≤4 that patients are sufficiently sedated.

    Measured: day 0

  4. Observation time in the PACU

    the time interval between "endoscope removal" and "departure from the recovery room" (PADS score≥9)

    Measured: day 0

Secondary outcomes (12)
  1. Simple Intelligence Assessment Scale (mini-cog)

    1. Ask the subjects to listen carefully and memorize 3 unrelated words, and then repeat (Apple, Watch, Coin);
    2. Ask the subjects to draw the shape of the clock on a blank sheet of paper, and give the subject a time to mark it on the clock (the CDT of the clock drawing test is correct; it can correctly indicate the sequence of the digits and display the given Fixed time);
    3. Ask the subject to say the 3 words given previously.

    Measured: Every 4 hours, up to 1 week

  2. Drug dosages

    The total single dosage of remimazolam , propofol, etomidate,remifentanil and tosilate.

    Measured: day 0

  3. Patient overall satisfaction and surgeon satisfaction score

    The patient's overall satisfaction score and surgeon satisfaction score were evaluated by 1-10 points (1mm=completely dissatisfied, 100mm=completely satisfied).

    Measured: day 0

  4. Visual analogue scale (VAS)

    The visual analogue scale (VAS) score ranges from 0 to 10 points (0mm means patients feel no pain, 100mm means patients feel the most severe pain imaginable)

    Measured: day 0

  5. Level of hypoxia

    Oxygen saturation <90% for more than 1 minute #that share a common Unit of Measure in(%)

    Measured: day 0

  6. Respiratory depression

    Respiratory rate < 8 breaths per minute ,that share a common Unit of Measure in(times)

    Measured: day 0

  7. Rate of nause、vomiting、 dizziness、hiccups、 cough choking 、body movement

    Rate of nause、vomiting、 dizziness、hiccups、 cough choking 、body movement in (%) Rate of coughing and vomiting in(%)

    Measured: Within 24 hours

  8. Supine heart rate[HR]

    Supine heart rate[HR] in (times)

    Measured: day 0

  9. Systolic, diastolic, blood pressure

    Systolic, diastolic, blood pressure in(mmHg)

    Measured: day 0

  10. Assessment of pulse oximetry measurements[SpO2]

    Assessment of pulse oximetry measurements[SpO2]in(%)

    Measured: day 0

  11. Respiration rate[RR]

    Respiration rate[RR] in (times)

    Measured: day 0

  12. End-tidal carbon dioxide [EtCO2]

    End-tidal carbon dioxide [EtCO2] in (%)

    Measured: day 0
