A prospective observation study of the dynamic monitoring of transcutaneous arterial blood oxygen saturation and carbon dioxide during bronchoscopy.

ABSTRACT:

Background and aims

Because bronchoscopy is an invasive procedure, sedatives and analgesics are commonly administered, which may suppress the patient's spontaneous breathing and can lead to hypoventilation and hypoxemia. Few reports exist on the dynamic monitoring of oxygenation and ventilation during bronchoscopy. This study aimed to prospectively monitor and evaluate oxygenation and ventilation during bronchoscopy using transcutaneous arterial blood oxygen saturation and carbon dioxide.

Methods

We included patients who required pathological diagnosis using fluoroscopic bronchoscopy at our hospital between March 2021 and April 2022. Midazolam was intravenously administered to all patients as a sedative during bronchoscopy, and fentanyl was administered in addition to midazo
