Objective To observe the effect of shoulder-high head back-up position on airway ob-struction and hypoxia during fiberoptic bronchoscopy under non-intubated general anesthesia.Methods A total of 170 patients undergoing painless fiberoptic bronchoscopy,97 males and 73 females,aged 18-64 years,BMI 18.5-28.0 kg/m2,ASA physical status Ⅰ-Ⅲ,were randomly divided into two groups by ran-dom number method:observation group(group D,n=84)and control group(group C,n=83).Group D adopted the shoulder-high head back-up position,and group C adopted the supine position.All the pa-tients received intravenous general anesthesia of propfol combined with sufentanil,and were oxygenated via an ordinary endoscopic mask with an oxygen flow rate of 8-10 L/min.Fiberoptic bronchoscopy was per-formed when the modified observer assessment of alertness and sedation(MOAA/S)score was≤1 point.The number of cases in which hypoxia occurred and corrective measures were taken were recorded.The changes of HR,SBP,DBP,and SpO2 before induction of anesthesia(T1),1 minute after induction of an-esthesia(T2),endotracheal surface anesthesia(T3),at the time of examination(T4),and at the end of the examination(T5)were recorded.The degree of obstruction of the retropalatal space and retroglossal space at T2 were recorded.The level of glottic exposure and operating comfort of the endoscopist were recor-ded during the examination,and the incidence of postoperative neck discomfort,postoperative headache,postoperative dizziness,and nausea and vomiting were recorded.Results Compared with group C,the in-cidence of intraoperative moderate hypoxia,severe hypoxia,jaw support,and assisted ventilation was signifi-cantly decreased in group D(P<0.05).Compared with T1,the HR were significantly increased at T3 and T4(P<0.05),SBP and DBP were significantly decreased at T2,T4,and T5(P<0.05),SpO2 was sig-nificantly increased at T2 and decreased at T4 in the two groups(P<0.05),and SpO2 in group C was sig-nificantly decreased at T3(P<0.05).Compared with group C,SpO2 was significantly increased at T4,the incidence of non-obstruction in the retrolingual space was significantly increased,and the incidence of com-plete obstruction in the retrolingual space was significantly decreased at T2,and the incidence of good glottic exposure was significantly increased,the incidence of poor glottic exposure was significantly decreased,and the incidence of good operating comfort of the endoscopist was significantly increased in group D(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative adverse events between the two groups.Conclusion Shoulder-high head back-up position can alleviate airway obstruction and reduce the incidence of hypoxia during fiberoptic bronchoscopy under non-intubated general anesthesia.

The Compilation Instructions for Expert Consensus on Clinical Application of Dieda Huoxue capsules systematically expound the development methods and evidence-based basis of this consensus. In view of the weak clinical application evidence and ambiguous indications of Dieda Huoxue capsules, the Institute of Basic Research in Clinical Medicine of the China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences and Wangjing Hospital took the lead and collaborated with 33 experts from 28 medical institutions nationwide. They strictly followed the World Health Organization (WHO) guideline-making norms and the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluations (GRADE) evidence-grading system and completed the compilation through multidisciplinary cooperation. The workflow included constructing clinical questions (19 items were screened by the nominal group technique), retrieving evidence (from Chinese and English databases and grey literature), assessing safety (integrating drug monitoring data and clinical investigations), and forming recommendations and consensus suggestions (3 recommendations were reached via the GRADE grid method, and 16 consensus suggestions were reached by the majority vote rule). The results indicate that the consensus clearly states that this medicine (Dieda Huoxue capsules) is applicable to conditions like traumatic injury, blood stasis-induced pain, and sudden lumbar sprains. The recommended dose is 6 capsules each time, twice a day. Combining oral administration with external application can enhance the efficacy, and elderly patients should take the medicine at intervals. Safety monitoring suggests that it should be used with caution in people with a bleeding tendency and those with an allergic constitution. The compilation process involved three rounds of reviews by internal and external experts. Literature analysis, the Delphi method, and clinical applicability tests were employed to ensure methodological rigor. The compilation instructions comprehensively present key aspects such as project approval and registration, conflict-of-interest statements, and evidence evaluation through 12 appendices, providing methodological support for the clinical translation of the consensus. In the future, it will be continuously improved through a dynamic revision mechanism.
