The Utility of Pretracheal Stethoscope in Detecting Respiratory Abnormalities in Sedated Children

December 21, 2018 updated by: University of Wisconsin, Madison

The Utility of Amplified Pretracheal Stethoscope in Detecting Ventilatory Abnormalities During Propofol Sedation of Non Intubated Children: a Validation Study

The purpose of the study is to validate the diagnostic performance of the amplified pretracheal stethoscope (APS) to detect sedation-related adverse acute respiratory events in propofol sedated nonintubated children. To determine the sensitivity/specificity and positive/negative predictive value of the APS in detecting sedation-related adverse acute respiratory events in propofol sedated nonintubated children.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
An auscultation of a stridor score greater than or equal to 2 will be defined as a sedation-related adverse acute respiratory event
Time Frame: Day 1 of propofol sedation.
Day 1 of propofol sedation.
A stridor score of less than 2 will be defined as not sedation-related event.
Time Frame: Day 1 of sedation.
Day 1 of sedation.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The positive predictive value and negative predictive value of the APS for predicting airway obstruction.
Time Frame: Day 1 of propofol sedation.
A subject will be considered as evaluable for the sensitivity/specificity evaluation if (1) all inclusion criteria are met, (2) presedation phase is completed, and (3) the sedation induction and maintenance phase is completed.
Day 1 of propofol sedation.
