Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to compare the sedation effect of dexmedetomidine and target controlled remifentanil for awake nasotracheal fibreoptic intubation in patients undergoing oral maxillofacial surgery.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Awake fibreoptic nasotracheal intubation is an effective technique for the management of patients with difficult airways undergoing oral maxillofacial surgery. Both optimal intubating conditions and patient comfort are paramount while preparing the patient for fibreoptic intubation. One challenge associated with procedure is to provide adequate sedation while maintaining patients' airway ventilation. Dexmedetomidine, because of its sedative,analgesic properties and minimal influence on patients' ventilation, might be a useful management for it. While with the development of target controlled infusion (TCI) technology, remifentanil sedation becomes a potential sedation in clinical practice.

The initial target was 3.0 ng/ml and the TCI was adjusted by 0.5 ng/ml after the target concentration at the effect site had equilibrated with the plasma concentration, until the desired level of sedation was acheived.
