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 propofol when they are both combined with midazolam and remifentanil during awake endotracheal intubation.

Detailed Description

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

Awake intubation is one of the best strategy guaranteed by the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) guidelines for the management of patients with anticipated difficult airways. Hemodynamic stability, optimal intubating conditions, patients' comfort, amnesia and preservation of patents' spontaneous respiration are critical for awake intubation. Sedation is one of the key elements for this technique. Intravenous midazolam, propofol, dexmedetomidine and remifentanil are commonly used as sedatives during awake intubation. These agents are not preferred to be used alone but in combination with each other for the purpose of minimizing their respective side effects. The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to compare the safety and effectiveness of dexmedetomidine versus propofol for sedation during awake endotracheal intubation when they are both combined with midazolam and remifentanil.
