About
Sedation typically begins with 2 mg of midazolam (0.025-0.1 mg/kg), followed by propofol given initially at 0.5-1.0 mg/kg bolus doses, with additional 0.25-0.5 mg/kg boluses as needed every 1-3 minutes to maintain sedation. Depending on clinical judgment, ketamine may be added to minimize propofol doses due to its minimal respiratory depression effects, administered at 0.25-0.50 mg/kg.
In the study protocol, participants undergo comprehensive assessments using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, Numeric Rating Scale for Sleep Quality, and Richards Campbell Sleep Questionnaire on the procedure day, conducted in person.
Participants are randomized into two groups: one receiving midazolam and propofol (control group), and the other receiving ketamine in addition to midazolam and propofol.
Procedure duration and medication doses are meticulously recorded. Post-procedure, patients with a Modified Aldrete Score of 10 are transferred to the recovery unit. Participant data are documented, with follow-up conducted via phone 7 days post-procedure. Participants are reassessed using the aforementioned scales after the procedure, concluding the initial follow-up. The effects of ketamine on sleep quality will be evaluated by comparing the values of the mentioned scales before and after the procedure.
Full description
During colonoscopy procedures, routine procedural sedation and analgesia are typically administered due to expected severe discomfort and pain. Sedation is administered by anesthesiologists using various medications according to established clinical guidelines, such as those outlined by the Turkish Society of Anesthesiology and Reanimation. Typically, an initial dose of 2 mg of midazolam (0.025-0.1 mg/kg) is administered, followed by propofol. Propofol is initially given at a bolus dose of 0.5-1.0 mg/kg, followed by additional bolus doses of 0.25-0.5 mg/kg at intervals of 1-3 minutes as required to achieve and maintain sedation. Depending on clinical judgment, some clinicians may supplement with ketamine, known for its minimal respiratory depression effects, to reduce propofol dosage. Ketamine is administered at doses of 0.25-0.50 mg/kg for this purpose. All medications are administered intravenously, aiming for a moderate sedation scale of 1-3 (TARD Non-operating Room Anesthesia Practice Guidelines, March 2022, page 17).
In the study protocol, participants will undergo the following procedures based on these guidelines.
Participants who consent to participate in the study will undergo assessment using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, Numeric Rating Scale for Sleep Quality, and Richards Campbell Sleep Questionnaire on the day of the procedure. This assessment will be conducted in person.
Participants will be randomized into two groups. One group will receive midazolam and propofol, constituting the control group. The other group will receive ketamine in addition to midazolam and propofol during the procedure.
The duration of the procedure and total medication doses will be documented. After the procedure, patients achieving a Modified Aldrete Score of 10 will be discharged to the recovery unit (TARD Non-operating Room Anesthesia Practice Guidelines, March 2022, page 17).
Data on participants will be recorded, and they will be contacted by phone 7 days post-procedure.
Participants will undergo reassessment using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, Numeric Rating Scale for Sleep Quality, and Richards Campbell Sleep Questionnaire scales after the procedure.
Following this assessment, participant follow-up will conclude. The effects of ketamine on sleep quality will be evaluated by comparing the values of the mentioned scales before and after the procedure.
Participants will be randomized into the Ketamine Group and Control Group in a 1:1 ratio. Randomization will be conducted using computer software by an independent researcher (AY). Randomization will be securely stored in sealed envelopes. An independent researcher (AŞ) will open the envelope 30 minutes prior to the procedure. The researcher administering anesthesia and the researcher conducting participant follow-ups and assessments (BG) will remain blinded to each other. Participants and the researcher assessing sleep quality (BG) will be unaware of the treatment administered to participants. The study is designed as a double-blind trial.
