Brief Summary

Flexible bronchoscopy (FB) sedation requires keeping sedative level in a narrow window to prevent over or under sedation. Sedative drug titration according to subjective adjustment by individual physician may cause unsteady drug concentration. Target controlled infusion (TCI) has been provided a precise pharmacokinetic control of propofol, direct control the effect side, (eg. Brain) concentration (Ce), and been applied in surgical anesthesia and variable procedure sedation. We designed this pilot study to evaluate the optimal regimen of TCI in FB sedation.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • The Number of Patients With Hypoxemia During Flexible Bronchoscopy

    Hypoxemia is defined as: Oxyhemoglobin saturation (SPO2) is less than 90 % with any duration

    During sedative induction and bronchoscopy

  • The Number of Changes in Target Effect Site Concentration During Flexible Bronchoscopy

    The investigator will titrate the target effect site concentration (Cet) during bronchoscopy according to protocol to keep stable vital signs and sedative levels. The numbers of adjustment will be recorded to show which regimen required less adjustment to keep stable sedative levels and vital signs.

    During sedative induction and bronchoscopy

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • The Recovery Time to Orientation

    after bronchosocpy

  • The Total Doses of Propofol During Induction and Overall Procedures

    after bronchoscopy

  • The Cooperation of Patients From the View of Bronchoscopists

    After bronchoscopy

  • The Global Tolerance for Flexible Bronchoscopy

    After recovery

Study Arms (3)

Titration by target effect site concentration (Cet) 0.5μg/ml

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The investigator will titrate the Cet to keep stable vital signs and sedative level during the flexible bronchoscopy. The criteria for titration is descried in the intervention.

Procedure: TCI titration by different Cet.

Titration by Cet 0.2μg/ml

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The investigator will titrate the Cet to keep stable vital signs and sedative level during the flexible bronchoscopy. The criteria for titration is descried in the intervention.

Procedure: TCI titration by different Cet.

Titration by Cet 0.1μg/ml

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The investigator will titrate the Cet to keep stable vital signs and sedative level during the flexible bronchoscopy. The criteria for titration is descried in the intervention.

Procedure: TCI titration by different Cet.

Interventions

Induction: After topical xylocaine and alfentanil 5μg/kg iv 1 minute before, Cet 2.0μg/ml is started on the TCI pump ('Vial" Injectomat TIVA Agilia syringe infusion pump, Fresenius Kabi, France). The sedative level will be accessed by sedation scale "OAA/S" every 30 seconds till OAA/S ≦3(Responds only to name called loudly). The current Ce will be set as the maintenance Cet. If desired OAA/S is not achieved after reaching 2.0μg/ml,Cet will be increased every 90 seconds by the regimens be assigned until OAA/S ≦3. The current Ce will be set as the maintenance Cet. Maintenance: The Cet will be increased according to the assigned regimens if: 1. Patients become irritant and interfere procedures. 2. Patients open eyes or talk to express uncomfortable. The Cet will be decreased if: 1. Systolic blood pressure is less than 90mmHg; 2. Mean arterial blood pressure is less than 65mmHg; 3. Oxyhemoglobin saturation is less than 90 % with any duration.
