Effect of gender on dose-effect relationship of remimazolam combined with alfentanil in painless gastroscopy
Objective:To evaluate the effect of gender on dose-effect relationship of remimazolam combined with alfentanil in painless gastroscopy.Methods:Subjects who planned to undergo elective painless gastroscopy,aged 18-60 years old,body mass index 19-24 kg/m2,American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ,were enrolled.They were divided into male group and female group.The first subject in both groups received afentanil 5 μg/kg and remimazolam 0.2 mg/kg,and was implanted into a gastroscope 2 minutes later.Positive reactions were defined as body movement,coughing,swallowing and frowning during gastroscopy placement and examination.Remimazolam 0.05 mg/kg was used as a dose gradient by using modified Dixon's up-and-down method.The dose of the next subject was adjusted according to whether the subject had a positive reaction.If there was a positive reaction,the dose of the next subject was increased by one level of gradient,otherwise,the dose was decreased by one level of gradient,and so on.The process was terminated at the seventh intersection point of positive-negative reaction.And 50% effective dose(ED50),95% effective dose(ED95)and 95% confidence interval(CI)of remimazolam for inhibiting gastroscopic implantation reaction was calculated by Probit method.Results:A total of 46 subjects were included,with 23 subjects in each group.There was no significant difference in general data between the two groups.The ED50 of afentanil combined with remimazolam was 0.193 mg/kg(95% CI:0.145-0.286),and the ED95 was 0.293 mg/kg(95% CI:0.237-0.903)in male group.The ED50 of afentanil combined with remimazolam was 0.215 mg/kg(95% CI:0.155-0.293),and the ED95 was 0.316 mg/kg(95% CI:0.261-0.968)in female group.The ED50 and ED95(P＜0.05).Conclusion:When combined with 5 μg/kg of afentanil,remimazolam is more effective in inhibiting responses to gastroscopy inserting in male subjects than in female subjects.
