Improve Oxygenation and Capnographic Detection During Sedative EGD

Comparison of Techniques to Improve Oxygenation and Capnographic Detection During Sedative Gastrointestinal Endoscopy

The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of mandibular advancement bite block and high flow nasal cannula to standard bite block for oxygenation, capnographic measurement, prevention of hypoxemia, intervention events and adverse effects during endoscopic examinations.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

During endoscopic examinations, especially during those performed via oral insertion of endoscopes, an oral bite is used to protect the examination instruments and patients. During sedated endoscopic examinations, the patients are under influence of anesthetics. Upper airway obstruction often occurred due to respiratory depression and airway collapse resulting in desaturation. Airway management with high percentage oxygen, jaw thrust, or insertion of nasal airways by trained anesthetic personnel is required during upper airway obstruction emergencies. Nasal airway is invasive and causes nasal bleeding, sinusitis and other problems. Jaw thrust and bag-mask ventilation requires training and is a burden to anesthetic personnel to perform. Oxygenation and capnography are important ventilatory monitors during sedative procedures. These are often influenced by open mouth breathing during upper gastrointestinal endoscopic examinations making oxygenation and capnographic measurements unreliable. In this study, we group the patients into A group using standard of care, B group using mandibular advancement oral bite and C group using high-flow nasal cannulas. After anesthetic induction, gastric endoscopy will be performed. Oxygenation, end-tidal carbon dioxide, and degree of upper airway obstruction will be evaluated and recorded. Differences between the groups will be evaluated.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Area under the curve of 95% oxygen desaturation (AUCdesat)
Time Frame: From time of first sedative medication given until the time of discharge from recovery room, assessed up to 1 hour
AUCdesat is defined as the integrated area under oxygen saturation (SPO2) for a selected cut point per 30 seconds, which better reflects the duration and severity of hypoxemia than the lowest saturation
From time of first sedative medication given until the time of discharge from recovery room, assessed up to 1 hour

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of rescue interventions
Time Frame: From time of first sedative medication given until the time of discharge from recovery room, assessed up to 1 hour
Number of rescue interventions counted if any of the following procedures are performed, such as sustained chin lift or jaw thrust, insertion of an oral or nasal airway or bag-mask ventilation.
From time of first sedative medication given until the time of discharge from recovery room, assessed up to 1 hour
Number of apnea episodes
Time Frame: From time of first sedative medication given until the time of discharge from recovery room, assessed up to 1 hour
Number of apnea episodes, which are number of times which the patient lack respiratory activity and loss of ETCO2 detection greater for 30 seconds occurs.
From time of first sedative medication given until the time of discharge from recovery room, assessed up to 1 hour
Number of partial airway obstruction episodes
Time Frame: From time of first sedative medication given until the time of discharge from recovery room, assessed up to 1 hour
Number of partial airway obstruction episodes, which are number of times grunting or snoring with positive ETCO2 measurement greater than 30 secs occurs.
From time of first sedative medication given until the time of discharge from recovery room, assessed up to 1 hour
Number of total airway obstruction episodes
Time Frame: From time of first sedative medication given until the time of discharge from recovery room, assessed up to 1 hour
Number of total airway obstruction episodes, which are number of times loss of ETCO2 detection while in presence of respiratory activity greater than 30 secs occurs.
From time of first sedative medication given until the time of discharge from recovery room, assessed up to 1 hour
