The Effective Blood Concentration of Ciprofol

1. Eligible patients were selected and enrolled in the study. 2. General anesthesia was induced using ciprofol in all participants, with standardized evaluation of consciousness levels during induction. 3. The patients' pain and cognition are followed up after surgery.

Treatment and study plan

ciprofol

Drug

Beginning with an initial target plasma concentration of ciprofol at 1.2 μg/mL. Assessments of the Modified Observer's Assessment of Alertness/Sedation (MOAA/S) scale and Bispectral Index (BIS) values are performed every minute until the patient achieves a complete anesthetic state (defined as an MOAA/S score of 0).

Primary outcomes

  1. The effect-site concentration of cipofol, when MOAAS reaches 2

    Time frame: From the beginning of anesthesia induction until 1 minute after intubation, the MOAA/S score was assessed every minute, with simultaneous recording of the effect-site concentration (Ce).

    The effect-site concentration of cipofol corresponding to MOAA/S score (Modified Observer's Assessment of Alertness/Sedation) of 2.

    (Modified Observer's Assessment of Alertness/Sedation: 5--Responds readily to name spoken in normal tone ; 4--Lethargic response to name spoken in normal tone ; 3--Responds only after name is called loudly and/or repeatedly ; 2--Responds only after mild prodding or shaking ;

    1--Responds only after painful trapezius squeeze ; 0--No response after painful trapezius squeeze;)

Secondary outcomes

  1. The effect-site concentration of cipofol, when MOAA/S reaches 0.

    Time frame: From the beginning of anesthesia induction until 1 minute after intubation, the MOAA/S score was assessed every minute, with simultaneous recording of the effect-site concentration (Ce).

    The effect-site concentration of cipofol corresponding to MOAA/S score (Modified Observer's Assessment of Alertness/Sedation) of 0.

  2. Bispectral index

    Time frame: From the beginning of anesthesia induction until 1 minute after intubation, the MOAA/S score was assessed every minute, with simultaneous recording of the BIS values.

    Bispectral Index (BIS) values corresponding to different Modified Observer's Assessment of Alertness/Sedation (MOAA/S) scores.

  3. The EC₅₀ and EC₉₅ of ciprofol

    Time frame: From the beginning of anesthesia induction until 1 minute after intubation , the MOAA/S score was assessed every minute, with simultaneous recording of the effect-site concentration (Ce).

    The EC₅₀ and EC₉₅ of ciprofol corresponding to MOAA/S scores of 2 and 0

  4. Heart rate

    Time frame: From the beginning of anesthesia induction until 1 minute after intubation, the MOAA/S score was assessed every minute, with simultaneous recording of the HR.

    Heart rate(in bpm) corresponding to different Modified Observer's Assessment of Alertness/Sedation (MOAA/S) scores.

  5. Blood pressure

    Time frame: From the beginning of anesthesia induction until 1 minute after intubation, the MOAA/S score was assessed every minute, with simultaneous recording of the systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and mean arterial pressure.

    The systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and mean arterial pressure corresponding to different MOAAS scores were all recorded.
