The ED95 of Single Intravenous Bolus Remimazolam Besylate in Pediatric Patients During General Anesthesia Induction
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Due to the incomplete development of systems and low pain thresholds in the pediatric population, good general anesthesia is required during the perioperative period to ensure the smooth progress of the surgery.Propofol is often used for anesthesia induction in clinical work, which can achieve good anesthesia effects. However, this drug has obvious injection pain and is prone to significant inhibition of blood circulation, and may even lead to adverse conditions such as respiratory depression in children. For the pediatric population, maintaining appropriate anesthesia depth and stable circulation during the induction period of general anesthesia has always been a focus of attention and research by anesthesiologists.Remimazolam besylate is a new type of water-soluble ultra short acting benzodiazepine drug that is hydrolyzed and metabolized by plasma esterase in the body, independent of liver and kidney function, and the metabolite zolam propionic acid has no pharmacological activity; Rapid onset and failure, short sedation recovery time; Has little impact on respiration and circulation; And there is no injection pain.Remazolam besylate is highly suitable for children due to its characteristics, and some studies have demonstrated the safety of intravenous injection of Remazolam besylate. However, there is limited research on its dosage exploration, which to some extent limits its clinical application in children.This study aims to explore the 95% effective dose (ED95) of single intravenous injection of remidazolam besylate in children of different age groups, providing a theoretical basis for the use of remidazolam besylate in pediatric anesthesia.

Detailed Description
This experiment was divided into three groups based on the age of the children, namely 1-3 years old, 4-6 years old, 7-12 years old, with an initial dose of 0.2mg/kg. The time of consciousness loss in the children was evaluated after injection of ramazolam besylate to determine whether sedation had been achieved. The next dose was adjusted to 0.05mg/kg according to biased coin design,to further explore the ED95 of a single intravenous injection of ramazolam in children of different age groups.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- the time of the loss of consciousness(LOC) [evaluated within 300 s during anaesthetic induction]
the patients' unresponsiveness to the mild shaking of their shoulder
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Modified observer's assessment of alertness／sedation（MOAA/S）scale [Every 1 minutes after single intravenous bolus remimazolam]
5-Subject responds readily to name spoken in a normal tone; 4 -Lethargic response of a subject to a name spoken in a normal tone; 3 -The subject responds only after a name is called loudly and repeatedly; 2 -The subject responds only after mild prodding or shaking; 1 -The subject responds only after a painful trapezius squeeze; 0 -The subject does not respond to painful trapezius squeeze. MOAA/S score ≤ 2 points represent successful sedation
- BIS [Every 1 minutes after single intravenous bolus remimazolam]
BIS values range from 0 to 100. A value of 0 represents the absence of brain activity, and 100 represents the awake state. BIS values between 60 to 80 represent sedation; BIS values between 40 to 60 represent adequate general anesthesia for a surgery; values less than 40 represent a deep hypnotic state.
- Recovery time [Within up to 30 minutes after child's first eye opening in the postoperative period]
The time from discontinuation of sevoflurane to the first open eye of the children and to achieve aldrete≥9.
- Pediatric anesthesia emergence delirium [Within up to 15-30 minutes after child's first eye opening in the postoperative period]
The pediatric anesthesia emergence delirium scale consists of four items. Each item is scored 0-4 yielding a total between 0 and 20. The degree of emergence delirium increased directly with the total score. pediatric anesthesia emergence delirium scale ≥12 at any time indicates presence of emergence delirium.
- Number of children with adverse effects [Up to 24 hours including preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative periods]
Number of children with adverse effects: １、Bradycardia and/or hypotension need for hemodynamic support; 2、Desaturation is defined as Oxygen desaturation <90%; 3、Nausea and vomiting; 4、Any adverse effects requiring interventions.
