Arm | Intervention/treatment |
---|---|
Active Comparator: 2: Propofol
Control arm: the use of TCI of hypnotic (Propofol) during realization bronchial fibroscopy.
|
Drug: 2: Propofol
2: Propofol group- The infusion of Propofol by TCI begins at distance from the introduction of fiberoptic. The effect site target is 2,5 ng / ml.- A titration in increments or decrements (respectively increase or decrease of 0.5 mg / ml concentration effect site) separated by 1 minute intervals until an OAAS score of 4 and included respiratory rate between 10 and 20 cycles per minute. |
Experimental: 1: Remifentanil
Interventional arm: the use of TCI of morphinomimetic (Remifentanil) during realization bronchial fibroscopy.
|
Drug: 1: Remifentanil
1: Remifentanil group The infusion of Remifentanil by TCI begins at distance from the introduction of fiberoptic. The effect site target is 4 ng / ml.- A titration in increments or decrements (respectively increase or decrease of 1 ng / ml effect site concentration) separated by 1 minute intervals until an OAAS score of 4 and respiratory frequency range between 10 and 20 cycles per minute. |
- Duration of patient's caught [ Time Frame: at day0 ]Comparison of the duration of patient's caught during realisation of bronchial fibroscopy according to type of performed sedation (remifentanil versus propofol
- Respiratory frequence and Gaz volume [ Time Frame: Day0 ]Compare treatment modalities in terms of side effects (remifentanil versus propofol): initial values, maximum and minimum EtCO2 score, the occurrence of desaturation of more than 3 points compared to baseline in 6 l / min oxygen mask, the occurrence of bradypnea with respiratory rate less than 8 / minute, the occurrence of upper airway obstruction and a inhalation salivary.
- Fibroscopist's satisfaction [ Time Frame: Day0 ]Compare treatment modalities in terms of satisfaction for fibroscopist in 2 areas: the quality of fibroscopy and quality of sedation.
- Patient's satisfaction [ Time Frame: Day0 ]Compare treatment modalities in terms of satisfaction to the patient in 3 areas: collecting the degree of inconvenience, the degree of discomfort and the degree of acceptance to repeat the examination in the future.
- Pharmacodynamics [ Time Frame: Day0 ]Compare treatment modalities in terms pharmacodynamics: target concentrations were collected on initial site effect, maximum and average, as well as the rate received per minute and the total dose.
- Number of episodes of cough [ Time Frame: Day0 ]Compare the number of episodes of cough according to the type of sedation used
