The Study of Ciprofol for the Suppression of Cardiovascular Responses to Tracheal Intubation

The Second Affiliated Hospital of Hainan Medical University150 enrolled

Overview

Preliminary studies have illuminated the promising nature of ciprofol, indicating its enhanced safety spectrum, superior potency, and a diminished likelihood of experiencing injection-related discomfort. Venturing deeper, this research embarked on an ambitious quest to measure the 95% effective volume of ciprofol for induction of general anesthesia by a modified sequential method and juxtapose the 95% effective volume dosage of ciprofol against a corresponding dose of remimazolam during the initiation of general anesthesia. The study delved into diverse anesthetic protocols, meticulously scrutinizing the safety and efficacy credentials of ciprofol. The ultimate vision was to pave a robust foundation for the sophisticated and judicious utilization of ciprofol in clinical landscapes.

During general anesthesia induction, tracheal intubation is a significant procedure that can cause cardiovascular fluctuations due to the stimulation of tracheal receptors. This can lead to complications such as imbalances in vital organ oxygen supply, especially in patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disorders, potentially resulting in cardiac arrest. As the demand for anesthetics rises in clinical settings, some, due to extreme side effects, have been phased out, reducing the available options. Propofol, a common anesthetic, is effective and quick but has drawbacks like injection pain and risks associated with long-term use. In contrast, ciprofol, a new class I intravenous anesthetic, is emerging as a potentially better alternative. Early research indicates that ciprofol might have a broader safety margin than propofol and offers benefits like rapid recovery and lower chances of injection pain. Exhaustive studies on the precise dosage of ciprofol for surgical applications are scarce and comparisons between ciprofol and remimazolam are rarely reported in the literature. This research aims to bridge this knowledge gap, exploring the best dosage for tracheal intubation sedation, and ensuring patients get the most effective and safest anesthetic care.

Interventions

CiprofolDRUG

For induction of anesthesia, an experimental dose of ciprofol was given, and when the patient lost consciousness and the Modified Observer's Alertness/Sedation scale(MOAA/S score) was less than 1, then intravenous sufentanil and rocuronium bromide were administered, and tracheal intubation was performed 3 minutes later

RemimazolamDRUG

For induction of anesthesia, an experimental dose of remimazolam was given, and when the patient lost consciousness and the Modified Observer's Alertness/Sedation scale(MOAA/S score) was less than 1, then intravenous sufentanil and rocuronium bromide were administered, and tracheal intubation was performed 3 minutes later

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Heart Rate(HR)

Heart rate monitored with Dash4000 equipment

Time frame: Intravenous ciprofol up to 3 minutes after tracheal intubation

Mean Arterial Pressure(MAP)

Heart rate monitored with Dash4000 equipment

Time frame: Intravenous ciprofol up to 3 minutes after tracheal intubation

Secondary Outcomes

Bispectral Index(BIS)

Monitored woth Bispectral Index Vista. BIS ranges from 0-100, with 100 representing full wakefulness and 0 representing complete cortical electroencephalogram(EEG) suppression; the smaller the value, the deeper the depth of sedation Mild sedation is BIS 65-85, and deep sedation is BIS 40-60, with primitive EEG bursts of suppression when BIS \< 40.

Time frame: Intravenous ciprofol up to 3 minutes after tracheal intubation

Peripheral Oxygen Saturation(SPO2)

Monitored with Dash4000 equipment

Time frame: Intravenous ciprofol up to 3 minutes after tracheal intubation

Rate of respiratory inhibition,Injection pain,Hypotension,Allergy,Bradycardia,Muscle tremor,Postoperative nausea and vomiting

Referring to the standards in ciprofol's Phase III trial, the adverse reactions were defined as follows: (1) hypoxemia (oxygen saturation \< 90% for \> 30 s); (2) bradycardia (HR \< 45/min for \> 30 s); (3) hypotension (systolic BP decreased by 30% from the baseline value for \> 2 min); and (4) pain at the injection site during ciprofol administration, evaluated by a study-blinded investigator using a 4-point verbal rating scale.

Time frame: Intravenous ciprofol to leave resuscitation
