Effects of Intravenous Lidocaine During Sedation for Colonoscopy.

December 29, 2017 updated by: Jean François Brichant, University of Liege

Investigation of the Effects of Intravenous Lidocaine Infusion During Sedation for Colonoscopy

This study assesses the benefits of continuous intravenous lidocaine administration during sedation for colonoscopy.

Sedation will consist of propofol infusion titrated to provide adequate working conditions to the gastroenterologist. Patients will be randomly allocated into two groups: lidocaine infusion (bolus of 1.5 mg/kg followed by a continuous infusion of 4 mg/kg/h) or the same volume of placebo (normal saline)

Detailed Description

The potential benefits of lidocaine infusion will be tested on:

  • intraoperative respiratory depression
  • time for patient recovery
  • postoperative fatigue
  • postoperative pain
  • postoperative cognitive dysfunction

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: Lidocaine
Lidocaine. Administration of lidocaine is started with 1.5 mg/kg bolus injection followed by a continuous infusion of 4mg/kg/h.
Propofol (0.5 mg/kg or more) is titrated to provide loss of consciousness. Then in the lidocaine group, lidocaine 2% is administered as a bolus followed by a continuous intravenous infusion after loss of consciousness
Other Names:
  • XYLOCAINE ; (NDA) 006488
Placebo Comparator: Placebo
Placebo Administration of normal saline: same volume of saline as lidocaine.
Propofol (0.5 mg/kg or more) is titrated to provide loss of consciousness. Then in the placebo group, the same volume of normal saline is administered after loss of consciousness
