ABSTRACT

The use of sedation during gastrointestinal endoscopy reduces the discomfort and anxiety experienced by patients through the procedure, increases cooperation and facilitates the examination translates into higher tolerance and satisfaction levels with the care received perceived quality and greater readiness. Has been shown to even in prove the quality of explorations both for endoscopy, where a better view of the esophago-gastro-duodenal tract is achieved and colonoscopy, where sedation improve major quality indices including the percentage of complete exams. Furthermore, the sedation requires appropriately trained personnel to monitor patients during sedation and recovery until discharge from the endoscopy unit. Different sedation strategies exist. Some are based on the use of benzodiazepines either alone or associated with opioids and others on the use of propofol either alone or in combination. Selecting one must primarily base of staff experience and training and available technical resources. However, we must also assess the impact the selected approach may have on our endoscopy unit’s efficiency. We should reach an appropriate balance between the benefits obtained with sedation.
