Conscious sedation for endoscopic procedures.
نویسنده
چکیده
Despite the fact that gastrointestinal endoscopy is a safe procedure, significant complications can occur. According to the literature most complications are related to sedation and compared with perioperative mortality under general anaesthesia, the mortality for this procedure appears high. Strict implementation of existing guidelines is warranted.

متن کاملExtended Monitoring of the Sedated Patient: Bispectral Index, Narcotrend® and Automated Responsiveness Monitor
It has been demonstrated that a processed EEG derivative may reflect the patient’s level of consciousness during endoscopic sedation. However, to date a clinical benefit of EEG monitoring with respect to relevant safety parameters in routine gastrointestinal endoscopy has not been demonstrated. During long-lasting procedures (e.g. ERCP, ESD) a propofol-sparing effect has been shown, but a benef...
