Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the efficacy and security of different administrations of propofol on the sedation in upper gastrointestinal endoscopic procedures in snoring patients.
METHODS:A total of 1,117 patients with snoring in ASA I-II level, who underwent gastroscopy and received propofol as sedation, were assigned to Group A, Group B, and Group C.These groups had different administration methods of propofol. The dose of propofol, response to endoscopic procedures, changes of oxygen saturation of arterial blood (SPO₂), incidence of severe respiratory depression and sedation quality assessed by operators were observed.
RESULTS:The incidence of transient decline in SPO₂ in Group A, B, and C were 50.4%, 3.1%, and 18.5%, respectively. The doses of propofol of Group A, B, and C were (108.50±18.02) mg, (57.50±7.50) mg, and (79.80±10.02) mg, respectively, with significant difference (P<0.05). The incidence of severe respiratory depression in Group A was 1.2%, but Group B and C were 0%. Compared with Group A(100%) and C(100%), the satisfaction rate of sedation quality in Group B was 74%, with significant difference (P<0.05).
CONCLUSION:During the upper gastrointestinal endoscopic procedures, snoring patients are premedicated with propofol in various uses by steps or one slow administration. Both methods are safe and effective to reduce the incidence of severe respiratory depression, and patients have no memory of the procedure.
