Brief Summary: Patients undergoing endoscopic submucosal dissection with monitored anesthesia care MAC using remimazolam may develop respiratory distress during the procedure In these cases substandard doses of flumazenil have been found to improve respiratory distress without completely reversing sedation a novel and previously unknown phenomenon This study aimed to explore the ED90 of flumazenil to selectively improve only respiratory distress during MAC with remimazolam

The dose determination for flumazenil will follow a biased-coin up-and-down design Starting with an initial dose of 5 mcg if there is an improvement in respiratory distress the biased-coin method will be used to administer the same dose to the next patient with a probability of 89 and a decreased dose of 5 mcg to the next patient with a probability of 19 Any improvement in respiratory distress within 30 seconds of flumazenil administration will be recorded After the procedure the patient will be asked if they had any memory recall of the procedure Centered isotonic regression will be used to obtain the ED90 of flumazenil
Detailed Description: Study patients will be patients scheduled for ESD in our gastroenterology department and blood pressure and pulse measured in the pre-procedure room will be considered baseline vital signs At the start of the ESD procedure MAC with remimazolam will be performed A bolus of 5 mcg of remimazolam is given over 1 minute at the onset of sedation followed by a continuous intravenous infusion of remimazolam at a rate of 01 to 04 mgkghr during the procedure with a goal of a Modified Observers Assessment of AlertnessSedation Scale MOAAS score of 2-3 Record the total amount of remimazolam infused during the procedure For pain control during the procedure administer 50 ug of fentanyl at baseline and an additional 25 ug bolus of fentanyl if the patients blood pressure rises 20 of baseline systolic blood pressure or pulse rate increases 20 of baseline heart rate during the procedure or if the patient moves Enroll in the study if respiratory disturbance due to sedation overdose occurs during the procedure resulting in 1 sustained hypoxia SpO2 94 with a risk of severe hypoxia or 2 irregular breathing and excessive diaphragmatic breathing that prevents the endoscopist from performing the procedure If no respiratory disturbances occur during the procedure patients will be withdrawn from the study and excluded from statistical analysis If any of the above respiratory disturbances occur the remimazolam dose will remain unchanged and flumazenil will be administered to see if there is improvement Improvement will be considered to occur if the respiratory disturbance resolves within 30 seconds resulting in an increase in oxygen saturation and sustained to the point where endoscopy can be resumed Dosing follows a biased-coin up-and-down design Start with an initial dose of 5 mcg and increase by 5 mcg in the next patient if there is no respiratory improvement If there is respiratory improvement the same dose is given in the next patient with a probability of 89 and a probability of 19 using the biased-coin method a 5 mcg decrease is given in the next patient To determine the probability the principal investigator will randomly generate a number from 1 to 9 using a random number generator and if the randomly generated number is 1 to 8 the dose will be maintained and if the number is 9 the dose will be reduced The minimum dose will be 5 mcg and the maximum dose will be 150 mcg If there is no respiratory improvement with the medication start by reducing the remimazolam rate by 30 attempting to establish an airway by elevating the jaw joint and if respiratory distress persists inserting a nasopharyngeal airway device If respiratory distress improves resume the procedure After the procedure is completed ask the patient if they are awake

The study will follow a biased-coin up-and-down design with 60 patients who developed respiratory disturbances during MAC with remimazolam for ESD as the final analysis population The incidence of respiratory disturbances among patients undergoing MAC with remimazolam for ESD at our institution is about 40 so 167 patients are needed and we will apply the usual study dropout rate of 10 to target 167 patients undergoing MAC with remimazolam for ESD However if 60 patients develop respiratory distress before enrolling 167 and the study procedure is completed the study will be terminated The data from all 60 cases will then be used to find the ED90 using centered isotonic regression Centered isotonic regression is a method of finding the proportion of patients who responded at each dose level and using this to obtain a cumulative distribution function of the proportion of patients who responded to the dose17 This provides an estimate and confidence interval for the primary endpoint the ED90 for improvement in respiratory impairment and the probability of awakening the secondary endpoint at that ED90 dose to assess the likelihood of during-procedure awakening at that ED90 dose
