NCT04940273

Brief Summary

Although spontaneous hyperventilation patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage closely associated with poor outcomes, the standard therapy remains unavailable. Remifentanil has the pharmacological characterization of respiratory inhibition, mainly prolonging the expiratory time and decreasing the respiratory rate while preserving the respiratory drive. The investigators hypothesis that spontaneous hyperventilation could be corrected by titrating the dose of remifentanil and cerebral blood flow will augment during this process.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Explore the effective and safe dose of remifentanil to correct spontaneous hyperventilation in patients with aSAH

    The differences of partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2; mmHg) between the respective points (baseline and 30 minutes following each infusion rate adjustment of remifentanil) were recorded to determine the change of PaCO2 (mmHg).

    The PaCO2 (mmHg) at baseline and 30 minutes following each infusion rate adjustment (0.02、0.04、0.06、0.08μg/kg/min)

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • To explore the effect of remifentanil on the cerebral blood flow in patients with aSAH at the different dose

    The MFV at baseline and 30 minutes following each infusion rate adjustment (0.02、0.04、0.06、0.08μg/kg/min)

Study Arms (1)

remifentanil

EXPERIMENTAL

Continuous infusion of remifentanil at a dose of 0.02、0.04、0.06、0.08 ug/kg/min for 30 minutes in sequence.

Drug: Remifentanil Injection [Ultiva]

Interventions

Continuous infusion of remifentanil at a dose of 0.02、0.04、0.06、0.08 ug/kg/min for 30 minutes in sequence.

Also known as: remifentanil hydrochloride for injection
remifentanil
