Study Summary
Comparison of Sedation Drugs in Elderly Patients During Gastrointestinal Endoscopy
Researchers compared the use of remimazolam besylate and a combination of etomidate and propofol for sedation in elderly patients undergoing gastrointestinal endoscopy. The study aimed to assess the effectiveness and safety of these sedation methods.
Key Findings
Remimazolam besylate showed comparable safety and efficacy to the etomidate and propofol combination, making it a safe option for sedation during gastrointestinal endoscopy in elderly patients with ASA I-II. However, careful monitoring is necessary to address the occurrence of hiccups.
Practical Solutions and Value
Remimazolam besylate demonstrated a shorter post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) time and higher sedation satisfaction rate compared to the etomidate and propofol combination. It also resulted in a lower impact on patients’ lives within 24 hours post-procedure. These findings highlight the potential practical benefits of using remimazolam besylate for sedation in elderly patients during gastrointestinal endoscopy.
Clinical Trials and Medical Practice
Clinical trials play a crucial role in developing safe and effective treatments. It is essential to integrate their benefits into everyday medical practice. Our AI-driven platform, DocSym, consolidates ICD-11 standards, clinical protocols, and research into a single, easily accessible knowledge base for clinicians, facilitating the translation of clinical trial results into practical medical applications.
