Summary

The primary objective of this prospective trial will be to assess the effects of dexmedetomidine administration on oxygenation and respiratory function in patients undergoing diagnostic or therapeutic medical thoracoscopy/pleuroscopy for a pleural effusion compared to conventional conscious sedation/monitored anesthesia care (MAC) with midazolam. The secondary endpoint of the study will be to also assess the effects of dexmedetomidine administration on respiratory mechanics and postprocedural complications
