Fentanyl Test and A Short OSAS Screening Scale for Severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea

December 11, 2018 updated by: Xuan Wang, Children's Hospital of Fudan University

Comparison of Preoperative Fentanyl Test and A Short OSAS Screening Scale for Identifying Severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome

The aim of this study was to estimate and compare the value of the preoperative fentanyl test and the short OSAS screening scale to diagnose severe obstructive sleep apnea;and to observe the required amount of hydromorphone and the adverse respiratory events after adenotonsillectomy.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The results of polysomnography were obtained before adenotonsillectomy, and the short OSAS screening scale was completed by the subjects' parents in preoperative interview. All children were induced by sevoflurane inhalation. After eyelash reflex disappeared and pharyngeal airway insertion, giving 1 mcg/kg fentanyl when the End-tidal concentrations of sevoflurane were maintained at 3.0 and the spontaneous respiratory frequency was stable, observing the changes of respiratory rate. Severe OSAS was diagnosed as respiratory rate decreased by more than 50%. Anesthesia was maintained with desflurane and 60% nitrous oxide in oxygen. The children were transferred to the PACU after extubation. The postoperative pain and agitation were assessed according to the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario Pain Scale (CHEOPS) and The Pediatric Anesthesia Emergency Delirium (PAED) score, and all children were given hydromorphone for pain relief according to our protocol.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Sensitivity, specificity ,positive predictive value and negative predictive value,likelihood ratio
Time Frame: 5 months
Compared the diagnostic results of fentanyl test and the short OSAS screening scale with the diagnostic results of golden standard PSG.
5 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
hydromorphone requirement in PACU
Time Frame: 50 minutes after extubation

Pain was assessed according to the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario Pain Scale (CHEOPS) and hydromorphone of 2 µg/Kg was provided if the CHEOPS pain score was >6.

The CHEOPS is a behavioral scale for evaluating postoperative pain in young children. It can be used to monitor the effectiveness of interventions for reducing the pain and discomfort.It includes six categories of pain behavior, each with 3-4 levels.

CHEOPS pain score = SUM(points for all 6 parameters)

minimum score: 4 maximum score: 13

50 minutes after extubation
