Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Many studies address safety and effectiveness of non-anesthesiologist propofol sedation (NAPS) for GI endoscopy. Target Controlled Infusion (TCI) is a sophisticated tool for providing optimal sedation regimen and avoiding under or oversedation.

This randomized double blind controlled study compares standard moderate sedation level of sedation (group S) during upper endoscopy (EGD) and colonoscopy (CS) versus propofol NAPS (group P).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

70 CS and 70 EGD ASA I-II patients were studied. In group S (n=70) we administered fentanyl (1μg/kg) + midazolam (0.04-0.03 mg/kg) for CS and midazolam (0.04-0.03 mg/kg) for EGDS and in group P (n=70) fentanyl 1µg/Kg + propofol TCI 1.2-1.6 μg/ml for CS and propofol TCI 1.2-1.6 μg/ml for EGD. Vital parameters and Observer's Assessment of Alertness and Sedation Scale (OAA/S) were monitored throughout the study. Endoscopist's and patient's satisfactions were measured after procedure and 24-72 h later by visual analog scale (VAS).
