Detailed Description
Endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS)-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) has emerged as a highly effective, minimally invasive technique for sampling peribronchial, mediastinal, and lung masses for pathologic examination with low rate of complications, and costs.
Dexmedetomidine, is a high-affinity adrenergic agonist of the alpha 2 receptor, is a potential alternative sedative.
The use of dexmedetomidine does not lead to respiratory depression, or to a decline in cognitive skills or patient cooperation. This is because dexmedetomidine acts on the alpha-2 receptors in the locus coeruleus, in contrast to other sedatives (midazolam and propofol) which act on GABA receptors/cerebral cortex.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Active Comparator: dexmedetomidine group
|
Procedure: dexmedetomidine
patients will recieve moderate sedation by dexmedetomidine as study group
|
Active Comparator: general anesthesia group
|
Procedure: general anesthesia
general anesthesia with neuromuscular blockade under controlled ventilation as control group.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Diagnostic yield of Endobronchial ultrasound -guided transbronchial needle aspiration [During procedure]
The number of subjects in whom Endobronchial ultrasound -guided transbronchial needle aspiration provided a specific diagnosis will be assessed
Eligibility Criteria
Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status classification II or III a requiring EBUS-TBNA based on suspicion of either benign or malignant disease in mediastinal or hilar lymph nodes (LNs) or masses or requiring EBUS-TBNA for mediastinal staging of lung cancer.
Exclusion Criteria:
-
Suspected need for additional procedures other than EBUS-TBNA during planned bronchoscopy (e.g., need for navigational bronchoscopy, endobronchial biopsies, and therapeutic bronchoscopy)
-
body mass index > 35 kg/m2
-
allergies to any of the involved sedatives or anesthetic agents
-
comorbidities contraindicating the EBUS procedure
-
pregnancy
