Clinical Trial Summary

Upper endoscopy is uncomfortable for most patients. Meperidine has both sedative and analgesic effects, so its use may be helpful for patients receiving upper endoscopy.


Clinical Trial Description

Unsedated esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) is a useful tool for upper gastrointestinal tract examination and therapy, but it is uncomfortable for many patients. Meperidine has been widely used in colonoscopic examination for many years; however, its use in EGD has not been completely evaluated. ;
