Sedation for endoscopy in 2016 — Is endoscopist-guided sedation safe in complex situations?

237-239

Ferran González-Huix Lladó,

Abstract
The higher number of adverse events reported with anesthetist-delivered sedation are likely due to the fact that anethesia professionals induce deeper sedation as compared to sedation delivered by endoscopists. The former are trained to induce general anesthesia in their daily practice, where protective reflexes are more commonly depressed and the risk for undesired cardiopulmonary events is higher.
