Remimazolam Versus Dexmedetomidine for Procedural Sedation During Neuraxial Anesthesia Placement For Scheduled Cesarean Delivery

Patients presenting for a scheduled cesarean delivery who require a neuraxial anesthetic will be randomized to receive intravenous remimazolam or dexmedetomidine for procedural sedation during the placement of their spinal or epidural anesthesia.

Detaillierte Beschreibung

After obtaining consent, women presenting for scheduled cesarean delivery on the labor floor at Mount Sinai Hospital will be randomized into two groups to receive either remimazolam or dexmedetomidine. Baseline maternal demographic data, vital signs, and anxiety scores will be obtained. Prior to the placement of the spinal or epidural anesthesia, the unblinded clinical team will administer weight-based intravenous boluses of the assigned study medication, titrated to a target Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale (RASS) score of -1 to -2. Maternal anxiety scores and vital signs will be continuously monitored at 5-minute intervals throughout the neuraxial placement procedure. Following the completion of the cesarean delivery, a blinded research member will administer a brief survey in the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) to evaluate patient satisfaction and memory preservation.

Waffen und Interventionen

Teilnehmergruppe / Arm
Intervention / Behandlung
Experimental: Remimazolam
Participants randomized to this arm will receive intravenous remimazolam for procedural sedation prior to and during the placement of neuraxial anesthesia (spinal or epidural) for their scheduled cesarean delivery. Dosing will be titrated by an unblinded anesthesiologist to achieve a light target sedation level.
Administered via multiple weight-based intravenous boluses of 0.03 mg/kg over 1-2 minutes. Boluses are titrated sequentially until the patient reaches a target Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale (RASS) score of -1 to -2. Once the target sedation window is initially achieved, the clinical anesthesiologist will ask the patient if they desire additional anxiolysis; additional boluses will be given only upon explicit patient request. Administration terminates immediately upon successful placement of the neuraxial block.
Aktiver Komparator: Dexmedetomidine
Participants randomized to this arm will receive intravenous dexmedetomidine for procedural sedation prior to and during the placement of neuraxial anesthesia (spinal or epidural) for their scheduled cesarean delivery. Dosing will be titrated by an unblinded anesthesiologist to achieve a light target sedation level.
Administered via multiple weight-based intravenous boluses of 0.1 μg/kg over 1-2 minutes. Boluses are titrated sequentially until the patient reaches a target Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale (RASS) score of -1 to -2. Once the target sedation window is initially achieved, the clinical anesthesiologist will ask the patient if they desire additional anxiolysis; additional boluses will be given only upon explicit patient request. Administration terminates immediately upon successful placement of the neuraxial block.

Primäre Ergebnismessungen

Ergebnis Maßnahme
Maßnahmenbeschreibung
Zeitfenster
Sedation success
Zeitfenster: From the initiation of study drug administration until participant discharge from the Post-Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU), up to approximately 4 hours post-delivery.

This will be a composite primary outcome that is patient focused with values "Yes" or "No." To achieve a "Yes" for sedation success, all the following components must be met:

  • Satisfaction of anxiolysis rated as ≥ 2 on a 9-point scale (where -4 = Completely Dissatisfied, 0 = Neutral, and +4 = Completely Satisfied)
  • Preserved memory of the birth
  • No vital sign changes during the neuraxial placement, defined as hypotension (SBP < 80% of baseline), hypertension (SBP > 120% of baseline), bradycardia (HR < 60 bpm), tachycardia (HR > 100 bpm), respiratory depression (RR < 12 breaths/min), hypoxia (SpO2 < 90%). Baseline is defined as pre-op vitals taken in the PACU.
  • Would get the medication again
From the initiation of study drug administration until participant discharge from the Post-Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU), up to approximately 4 hours post-delivery.

Zeitfenster: From the initiation of the study drug until return to baseline sedation (RASS 0), up to approximately 2 hours.

The total sedation dose used will be recorded for remimazolam in mg and mg/kg and dexmedetomidine in μg and μg/kg.

(The Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale (RASS) scale score of 0 indicates that the participant is alert and calm.)

From the initiation of the study drug until return to baseline sedation (RASS 0), up to approximately 2 hours.
Time to peak sedation
Zeitfenster: From the initiation of the study drug until highest level of sedation, total sedation approximately 20 minutes.
The time to peak sedation will be defined as the time from start of sedation to highest Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale (RASS) sedation score recorded. The Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale (RASS) scale will be scored: 0 = alert and calm; -1 = drowsy (not fully alert, sustained (> 10 s) awareness with eye contact to voice); -2 = light sedation (awakens briefly (< 10 s) with eye contact to voice); -3 = moderate sedation (movement but no eye contact to voice); -4 = deep sedation (no response to voice, but eye opens or movement to physical stimulation); and -5 = unarousable (no response to voice or physical stimulation).
From the initiation of the study drug until highest level of sedation, total sedation approximately 20 minutes.
Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale (RASS)
Zeitfenster: Assessed at baseline and 1-minute intervals until baseline is restored, up to approximately 2 hours.
The participant's sedation score will be assessed using the Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale (RASS) scale. A RASS score of 0 = alert and calm; -1 = drowsy (not fully alert, sustained (> 10 s) awareness with eye contact to voice); -2 = light sedation (awakens briefly (< 10 s) with eye contact to voice); -3 = moderate sedation (movement but no eye contact to voice); -4 = deep sedation (no response to voice, but eye opens or movement to physical stimulation); and -5 = unarousable (no response to voice or physical stimulation).

Zeitfenster: From the initiation of the study drug until return to baseline sedation (RASS 0), up to approximately 2 hours.
The time to sedation recovery, which is the time between last minute of peak sedation (RASS -1 to -2) to baseline sedation (RASS 0), will be recorded. A Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale (RASS) score of 0 = alert and calm; -1 = drowsy (not fully alert, sustained (> 10 s) awareness with eye contact to voice); -2 = light sedation (awakens briefly (< 10 s) with eye contact to voice); -3 = moderate sedation (movement but no eye contact to voice); -4 = deep sedation (no response to voice, but eye opens or movement to physical stimulation); and -5 = unarousable (no response to voice or physical stimulation).

ISAS is scored as a mean of responses to 11 statements (e.g., "I felt pain," "I was satisfied with my anesthetic care"), yielding a single composite number. Each statement is measured from a range of -3 (not satisfied) to +3 (satisfied). A higher score indicates a higher patient satisfaction.

Umbilical artery/vein pH
Zeitfenster: Up to approximately 4 hours post-delivery.
This is the pH of the umbilical artery and vein. Umbilical cord blood pH is a measure of the hydrogen ion concentration in the blood obtained from the umbilical artery and/or umbilical vein at birth. The pH scale is continuous, with a lower pH indicating greater acidemia. A lower pH may reflect increased fetal exposure to intrapartum hypoxia.

Base excess in umbilical cord blood is a continuous measure reported in mmol/L (or mEq/L). A higher (less negative) base excess indicates more normal neonatal acid-base status, while a lower (more negative) base excess indicates greater metabolic acidosis, reflecting fetal oxygen deficit during labor and delivery.
