Continuous infusion versus intermittent bolus injection of propofol during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography

sedative and analgesic effects of propofol-fentanyl versus propofol-ketamine during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography: a double-blind randomized clinical trial

results the sedative effects were equal in the two groups (p > 0.05), but the analgesic effects were higher in the pf group than in the pk group (p < 0.05). the pk group had higher blood pressure levels in the eighth minute. respiratory rate, heart rate, and arterial oxygen saturation showed no significant differences between the groups (p > 0.05). endoscopist satisfaction, patient satisfaction...

Sedative and Analgesic Effects of Propofol-Fentanyl Versus Propofol-Ketamine During Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography: A Double-Blind Randomized Clinical Trial

BACKGROUND Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a painful procedure that requires analgesia and sedation. OBJECTIVES In this study, we compared the analgesic and sedative effects of propofol-ketamine versus propofol-fentanyl in patients undergoing ERCP. METHODS In this clinical trial, 72 patients, aged 30 - 70 years old, who were candidates for ERCP were randomly divided...

Anaesthetic considerations during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography.

Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography has evolved from being a simple diagnostic procedure, performed under proceduralist-administered sedation, to a therapeutic one involving increasingly complex techniques that require a high degree of patient cooperation. The anaesthetist has become a vital member of the team. Many of the patients are medically unfit for surgery. Sedation or general...

Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography: Summary

Diseases of the pancreas and biliary tree are common in the United States. An estimated 6 per 100,000 people are afflicted with common bile duct stones, representing only a small fraction of those with gallstones. There are approximately 57,400 newly diagnosed cases of malignancy of the pancreas, gallbladder, or extrahepatic biliary tract each year, and the prognosis is usually poor. Pancreatit...
