Abstract
The issue of propofol administration by nonanesthesiologists for upper endoscopy and colonoscopy remains controversial. A recent study investigated the efficacy and safety of a novel computer-assisted personalized sedation device. Patients sedated using the device experienced fewer serious cardiorespiratory events than patients undergoing standard sedation by bolus administration using a hand-held syringe.Entities:
