Randomized Controlled TrialModified Manual Chest Compression for Prevention and Treatment of Respiratory Depression in Patients Under Deep Sedation During Upper Gastrointestinal Endoscopy: Two Randomized Controlled Trials.
We aimed to determine the preventive and therapeutic efficacy of modified manual chest compression (MMCC), a novel noninvasive and device-independent method, in reducing oxygen desaturation events in patients undergoing upper gastrointestinal endoscopy under deep sedation. ⋯ MMCC may exert preventive and therapeutic effects against oxygen desaturation events during upper gastrointestinal endoscopy.
