Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
A randomized controlled trial of endoscopist vs. anaesthetist-administered sedation for colonoscopy.
Endoscopist-administered propofol sedation for colonoscopy has not been compared to anaesthetist-administered deep sedation in clinical trials. Our aim was to compare patients' satisfaction and safety during these two sedation modalities. ⋯ Endoscopist-administered propofol sedation for colonoscopy offered a better level of satisfaction and fewer side-effects than anaesthetist-administered deep sedation.
