Dexmedetomidina intranasal para la ansiedad dental grave: un ensayo aleatorizado

27 de septiembre de 2026 actualizado por: Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University

El efecto ansiolítico de la dexmedetomidina intranasal para pacientes severamente ansiosos en tratamientos dentales

Patients with dental anxiety only develop anxiety and fear about dental treatments. Patients with severe dental anxiety have difficulty cooperating with dental treatments, and can only complete dental treatments through general anesthesia, or even abandon treatments. Dexmedetomidine is a potent, highly selective α2-adrenoceptor agonist, which provides good anxiolytic, sedative and analgesic effects and is commonly used in anesthesiology and intensive care medicine departments, routinely intravenously. In recent years, intranasal administration of dexmedetomidine has also been reported for pediatric dentistry and adult alveolar surgery, showing good sedative and analgesic effects. However, these studies have problems such as single surgical types, small sample size, and few indicators analyzed. Therefore, the evaluation of intranasal administration of dexmedetomidine is still not comprehensive enough. Besides, the anxiolytic effect of dexmedetomidine for dental anxiety has not been reported yet. This project plans to carry out a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, two-stage clinical trial. We will firstly explore a reasonable dose, and secondly verify it with placebo as the control. We plan to measure the object indicators, including the NTI value, plasma cortisol, interleukin-6, blood pressure and heart rate, and to assess the subjective indicators using scales and questionnaires, thus comprehensively evaluating the effectiveness, safety and feasibility of the anxiolytic effect of intranasal dexmedetomidine for severe dental anxious patients, and preliminary exploring its mechanism additionally. We intend to help severe dental anxious patients completing dental treatments.

¿Qué mide el estudio?

Medidas de resultado primarias

Medida de resultado
Medida Descripción
Periodo de tiempo
Change of MDAS score
Periodo de tiempo: Change from baseline MDAS score right after finishing dental treatments, an average of 30 minutes

Dental anxious score will be accessed by modified dental anxiety scale (MDAS), and the change of MDAS score will be calculated as the scores right after dental treatments minus the initial score before intervention.

Change from baseline MDAS score right after finishing dental treatments, an average of 30 minutes

Medidas de resultado secundarias

Medida de resultado
Medida Descripción
Periodo de tiempo
Change of plasma cortisol concentration
Periodo de tiempo: Change from baseline plasma cortisol concentration right after finishing dental treatments, an average of 30 minutes

The change of plasma cortisol concentration will be calculated as the values right after dental treatments minus the initial values before intervention.

Change from baseline plasma cortisol concentration right after finishing dental treatments, an average of 30 minutes
Change of NTI score
Periodo de tiempo: Change from baseline NTI score right after finishing dental treatments, an average of 30 minutes

The depth of sedation will be accessed by NTI score using Narcotrend, and the change of NTI score will be calculated as the score right after dental treatments minus the initial score before intervention.

Change from baseline NTI score right after finishing dental treatments, an average of 30 minutes
Change of OAA/S score
Periodo de tiempo: Change from baseline OAA/S score right after finishing dental treatments, an average of 30 minutes

OAA/S score will be accessed by observer's assessment of alertness/sedation scale (OAA/S), which also represent the depth of sedation, and the change of OAA/S score will be calculated as the score right after dental treatments minus the initial score before intervention.

Change from baseline OAA/S score right after finishing dental treatments, an average of 30 minutes
Change of blood pressure (BP)
Periodo de tiempo: Change from baseline BP right after finishing dental treatments, an average of 30 minutes.

BP will be continuously accessed using an electrocardiogram monitor throughout the whole clinical process. BP value will be converted into mean arterial pressure (MAP) for comparison using the formula: MAP = (SBP + 2 × DBP)/3. Then the change of BP was presented as ΔMAP, which was calculated as the MAP at the point with the highest SBP minus the initial MAP right before the procedure.

Change from baseline BP right after finishing dental treatments, an average of 30 minutes.
Change of heart rate (HR)
Periodo de tiempo: Change from baseline HR right after finishing dental treatments, an average of 30 minutes.

HR will be continuously accessed using an electrocardiogram monitor throughout the whole clinical process. Change of HR equaled the corresponding HR of the highest SBP subtracted by the initial HR.

Change from baseline HR right after finishing dental treatments, an average of 30 minutes.
Pain score
Periodo de tiempo: Through the completion of dental treatments, an average of 30 minutes.

Pain score will be obtained via visual analogue scale (MDAS) for the subject to fill.

Through the completion of dental treatments, an average of 30 minutes.
Percentage of thinking feasible of intranasal dexmedetomidine by participants
Periodo de tiempo: Through the completion of dental treatments, an average of 30 minutes.

The feasibility of intranasal dexmedetomidine will be assessed through semistructured questionnaires. Items includes the reasons for nonparticipation; the acceptability of the trial and intranasal dexmedetomidine to participants; and the experience of the patients, the clinician performing the procedure, and the nursing staff taking care for patients during the study. The patients and clinic staffs filled the questionnaires right after the extraction process under our instruction. The outcome of the questionnaires was analyzed through counting and reported as a percentage (%).

Through the completion of dental treatments, an average of 30 minutes.
