Brief Summary

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

A total of 270 subjects undergoing gastroscopy/colonoscopy were randomly assigned to the methoxetomidate hydrochloride group and the etomidate group according to the ratio of 2:1 with etomidate as the control group.Neither the investigators nor the subjects were aware of the group assignments. Screening assessments for all subjects will be completed within D-14 to D-2 before the first dose. For all subjects who received the investigational drug, they were required to return to the research center on D2-5 to complete the corresponding examination before being discharged from the group. Compared with etomidate, the efficacy and safety of Methoxyethyl Etomidate Hydrochloride for sedation/anesthesia in gastroscopy/colonoscopy were further evaluated.
