Safety of Microstream Capnography Monitoring in Patients Under Sedation for Colonoscopy
Journal Title: The Medical Bulletin of Haseki - Year 2019, Vol 57, Issue 3
Abstract
Aim: "The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of micro stream capnography in early recognition of adverse events during sedation for colonoscopy. Methods: This prospective randomized study was performed implemented on 82 adults scheduled for elective colonoscopy. SpO2, ETCO2 and integrated pulmonary index (IPI) values were measured with the use of micro stream capnography and recorded. Arterial blood gas samples were taken at the beginning, 10th minute and end of the procedure and analyzed. Results: The correlation between mean values of IPI and mean values of ETCO2, SpO2 and PaCO2 was not statistically significant. There was a statistically significant correlation between IPI value at the beginning and PaCO2 value at the end of the procedure. Correlation of IPI value at the 10th minute with SpO2 at the 10th minute and SPO2 value at the end of the procedure was statistically significant. Conclusion: Non-invasive ETCO2 monitoring with micro stream capnography is correlated with PaCO2 values in arterial blood gas analysis, which is useful for monitoring of sedation and hypoventilation during colonoscopy procedures. However, IPI monitoring is not of clinical benefit to early recognition of hypoventilation. Non-invasive ETCO2 monitoring with micro stream capnography should be a part of routine monitoring for safe anesthetic practice outside the operating room.
