The purpose of this clinical trial is to observe the use of low-dose muscle relaxants in bronchoscopy intervention surgeries, compared with no muscle relaxants, in terms of the satisfaction of tracheal tube insertion after anesthesia induction, the incidence of laryngospasm, the grading of intraoperative cough and movement, and the recovery of patients after surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are:
Participants will:
Objective: To investigate whether the prophylactic use of low-dose neuromuscular blocking agents, in addition to remimazolam combined with remifentanil for intravenous anesthesia, can reduce the incidence of difficult mask ventilation and laryngospasm during induction, and to systematically observe the effects of this regimen on intraoperative adverse reactions and the quality of postoperative recovery.
Methods: A total of 154 patients undergoing elective bronchoscopic procedures were randomly divided into two groups: a muscle relaxant group (n=77) and a no-muscle relaxant group (n=77). Anesthesia induction in the muscle relaxant group was achieved with intravenous lidocaine 0.5 mg/kg, remimazolam 0.2 mg/kg, remifentanil 3 μg/kg, and rocuronium 0.15 mg/kg. The no-muscle relaxant group received the same regimen, except rocuronium was replaced with an equal volume of normal saline. A suitably sized laryngeal mask airway was inserted using a standard technique in both groups. Anesthesia was maintained with a continuous infusion of remimazolam at 1 mg/kg/h and remifentanil at 0.25-0.5 μg/kg/min. The primary outcome measures were the grade of chest wall rigidity, the incidence of difficult mask ventilation, the incidence of SpO₂ <92% during mask ventilation, the incidence of laryngospasm, and the grade of coughing/body movement during bronchoscope insertion. Secondary outcome measures included the incidence of SpO₂ <92% during bronchoscope insertion, perioperative changes in blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen saturation, bispectral index, airway pressure, and end-tidal carbon dioxide partial pressure; laryngeal mask airway insertion parameters (time, number of attempts, and ease of insertion); intraoperative drug dosages; the incidence of intraoperative and postoperative adverse reactions; and the quality of postoperative recovery.

| blood pressure | Blood Pressure: The lateral pressure exerted by blood on the walls of blood vessels when it flows within them. Systolic blood pressure (SBP): The highest pressure in the arteries during the contraction of the heart (normal range: 90 - 120 mmHg). Diastolic blood pressure (DBP): The lowest pressure in the arteries during the relaxation of the heart (normal range: 60 - 80 mmHg). | The time from when the patient enters the operating room until the patient finishes the surgery and leaves the operating room (up to 4 hours) |
| heart rate | Heart Rate: Number of heartbeats per minute (unit: beats per minute, bpm). . Normal resting heart rate: 60-100 beats per minute for adults. (For athletes or those who engage in long-term exercise, it can be as low as 40-50 beats per minute.) | The time from when the patient enters the operating room until the patient finishes the surgery and leaves the operating room (up to 4 hours) |
| oxyhemoglobin saturation | Blood oxygen saturation (SpO2): The percentage of oxyhemoglobin (HbO2) in the blood relative to the total hemoglobin (Hb), reflecting the oxygenation status of the body. . Normal range: For healthy adults at rest, it is 95% - 100%. Anything below 90% indicates hypoxemia. | The time from when the patient enters the operating room until the patient finishes the surgery and leaves the operating room (up to 4 hours) |
| Bispectral index | BIS is a method that analyzes the linear (frequency, power) and non-linear (phase, harmonic) components of electroencephalogram (EEG) data, converting them into quantitative indicators ranging from 0 to 100, which is used to assess the inhibitory or excitatory state of the cerebral cortex. Value range: 0 indicates no brainwave activity, and 100 represents a fully awake state. Core function: Primarily used for monitoring the depth of anesthesia, the level of sedation, and the state of consciousness, reducing the risk of intraoperative awareness. | The time from when the patient enters the operating room until the patient finishes the surgery and leaves the operating room (up to 4 hours) |
| airway peak pressure | Airway peak pressure is a very important parameter in mechanical ventilation, referring to the highest pressure value reached within one inhalation phase in the breathing circuit. The normal range is typically between 15 - 30 cmH2O. However, this varies depending on factors such as the patient's pathophysiological condition, ventilation mode, tidal volume, flow rate, and PEEP setting. | The period from the start of anesthesia induction to the time when the patient leaves the operating room after the surgery is completed (up to 4 hours) |
| Airway platform pressure | Airway plateau pressure is a key parameter for evaluating the pressure that alveoli can withstand in mechanical ventilation, reflecting the pressure (plus the set PEEP) required to overcome the elastic resistance (compliance) of the lungs and chest cavity. It can more directly reflect the degree of alveolar expansion at the end of inspiration and predict the risk of ventilator-associated lung injury (such as pressure injury, volume injury). The generally accepted safe upper limit is ≤ 30 cmH₂O (including PEEP). | The period from the start of anesthesia induction to the time when the patient leaves the operating room after the surgery is completed (up to 4 hours) |
| Carbon dioxide at the end of breathing | End-tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO₂) monitoring is a non-invasive, real-time, and continuous important technique. By measuring the partial pressure (usually expressed in mmHg or kPa) or concentration (%) of carbon dioxide in the exhaled gas of the patient, it reflects the ventilation function, metabolic status, and circulatory status. It is an indispensable monitoring method in anesthesia, intensive care, emergency rescue (especially cardiopulmonary resuscitation). Normal value: Adult: 35 - 45 mmHg (approximately 4.7 - 6.0 kPa). | The period from the start of anesthesia induction to the time when the patient leaves the operating room after the surgery is completed (up to 4 hours) |
| Dosage of Anesthetic Drugs | The dosages of the following drugs were recorded throughout the perioperative period: lidocaine, remimazolam, remifentanil, rocuronium, propofol, ephedrine, norepinephrine, atropine, esmolol, ebrantil, dyphylline, and dexamethasone.We calculated the total consumption of remimazolam and remifentanil, as well as the average consumption of remimazolam (total remimazolam consumption / duration of surgery / body weight) and the average consumption of remifentanil (total remifentanil consumption / duration of surgery / body weight). | Perioperative period |
| The satisfaction of the operating physician | The operating physician rated their satisfaction with the procedure on a scale from 1 to 10. The evaluation was based on procedural convenience, oxygenation stability (specifically, whether hypoxemia necessitated interruption of the procedure), and the overall smoothness of the workflow. | 30 minutes after surgery |
| Anesthesiologist satisfaction | Anesthesiologist satisfaction with the procedure was rated on a scale from 1 to 10. The evaluation was based on the difficulty of airway management (particularly the frequency of interventions required to maintain adequate ventilation), the efficacy of oxygenation maintenance, and the incidence of adverse events. | 30 minutes after surgery |
| Patient satisfaction | Patients rated their satisfaction with the procedure on a scale from 1 to 10. The rating was based on procedural comfort, the postoperative recovery experience, and their subjective perception of the sedation process. | 30 minutes after surgery |
