Sedation during Awake Fiberoptic Intubation |
Official scientific title |
A Comparative Study of Intravenous Dexmedetomidine¿versus Ketofol for Sedation during Awake Fiberoptic Intubation |
Brief summary describing the background
and objectives of the trial
|
Intubation in patients with a laryngeal mass may present a great challenge to anesthesiologists. Sometimes tracheostomy is not available,so the safest technique to secure the airway is using a fiberoptic bronchoscope
Adequate topical anesthesia and sedation are important during Awake fiberoptic intubation (AFOI) in order to maintain the patient's airway and minimize discomfort. Optimal technique should enable the patients to be cooperative, comfortable and have blunted airway reflexes.A number of agents have been used for sedation during AFOI. Airway blocks are usually performed on sedated, spontaneously ventilating patients.
Propofol is a sedative with a quick onset and short recovery time. It has also an anti-emetic, anticonvulsant, antipruritic and amnestic effects. But its use is limited by a relatively high incidence of dose-dependent hypotension and respiratory depression.
Ketamine provides excellent amnesia and analgesia, preserves muscle tone with maintaining airway reflexes and spontaneous respiration. But it has some disadvantages like
sympathomimetic effects,
hallucinations, vomiting and excessive salivation.Combination of propofol and ketamine has many advantages as it preserves haemodynamic stability, relieves hallucinations, analgesia,amnesia, airway preservation, maintenance of spontaneous respiration and rapid recovery.Dexmedetomidine is a selective adrenergic ¿2 agonist. It has sedative and analgesic properties.Contrary to other sedatives, dexmedetomidine does not cause respiratory depression
no data are available comparing dexmedetomidine and sedation with ketofol during awake fibreoptic intubation.This study was designed as randomized controlled trial to compare safety and efficacy of dexmedetomidine and ketofol administration during awake fibreoptic intubation as regards hemodynamic variables, oxygen saturation (primary goal) , endoscopy and intubation times, and patients' and anesthesiologists¿ satisfaction (secondary goal).
