Summary

Flexible bronchoscopy (FB) is a fundamental procedure for the diagnosis and treatment of respiratory diseases. Although midazolam is the recommended sedative agent by most guidelines, propofol has gained popularity due a short recovery time, however, evidence to propofol use for sedation during FB is scarce. There is little evidence about transcutaneous CO2 pressure (PtcCO2) behavior among patients sedated with propofol when it is administered by non-anesthesiologist and in combination with intravenous opioids for analgesia and cough inhibition. The investigators performed a randomized controlled trial to determine whether non-anesthesiology-administered balanced-sedation with propofol was related to high values of values of PtcCO2 compared with guideline-based sedation (midazolam and opioid). The investigators included data from outpatients 18 years or older with an indication for FB in a university hospital in northern of Mexico. Secondary outcomes were recuperation time, patient satisfaction and adverse effects.
