Changes in tissue oxygenation index (TOI). (a) Right TOI values were 71.3 (66.9–76.6)% just before sedation (baseline value), 71.6 (69.5–76.9)% when a Modified Observer’s Assessment of Alertness/Sedation (OAA/S) score of 2 was achieved after midazolam administration, and 73.3 (70.4–76.9)% just before start of treatment in the midazolam group; and 71.4 (67.5–78.6)% just before sedation (baseline value), 71.4 (67.4–79.2)% when an OAA/S score of 2 was achieved after dexmedetomidine administration, and 74.5 (70.2–77)% just before start of treatment in the dexmedetomidine group. (b) Left TOI values were 72.1 (70–76.7)% just before sedation (baseline value), 74.2 (70.6–76.4)%when an OAA/S score of 2 was achieved after midazolam administration, and 76.4 (73.6–79.8)% just before start of treatment in the midazolam group; and 75.3 (70.4–82.3)% just before sedation (baseline value), 74.7 (70.3–83.1)% when an OAA/S score of 2 was achieved after dexmedetomidine administration, and 77.8 (73.7–82.9)% just before start of treatment in the dexmedetomidine group. There were no significant differences in TOI values at each time point (measurement points 1, 2 and 3) between the midazolam and dexmedetomidine groups. Comparison of data at each time point (measurement points 1, 2 and 3) in each group indicated no differences.
