Popis: Hypoxia is the most frequently occurring adverse effect during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) under sedation; thus, oxygen must be properly supplied to prevent a reduction of oxygen saturation. In this study, we intend to verify the preventive effect for hypoxia during ERCP, using a high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC), in elderly patients. As a multicenter prospective randomized trial, patients who underwent ERCP with propofol-based sedation were randomly assigned into two groups: Patients in the HFNC group were supplied with oxygen via an HFNC, and those in the standard nasal cannula group were supplied with oxygen via a low-flow nasal cannula. The co-primary end points were the lowest oxygen saturation rate and hypoxia during the overall procedure. A total of 187 patients (HFNC group: 95; standard nasal cannula group: 92) were included in the analysis. Unexpected hypoxia events were more frequently observed among patients in the standard nasal cannula group than among patients in the HFNC group (13% vs. 4%, odds ratio 3.41, 95% confidence interval 1.06–11.00, p = 0.031). The mean of the lowest oxygen saturation rate during ERCP was significantly lower in the standard nasal cannula group than in the HFNC group (95% vs. 97%, p = 0.002). Oxygen supplementation with an HFNC can prevent oxygen desaturation and hypoxia events in patients undergoing ERCP under sedation.
