Official title:
Cocktail Sedation Containing Propofol Versus Conventional Sedation for ERCP: a Prospective, Randomized Controlled Study
Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) practically requires moderate to deep sedation by a combination of benzodiazepine and opioid. Propofol as a sole agent may cause oversedation. A combination (cocktail) of infused propofol, meperidine, and midazolam can reduce the dosage of propofol and may result in a lower risk of oversedation. The investigators prospectively compare the efficacy, recovery time, patient satisfactory, and side effects between cocktail and conventional sedations in patients undergoing ERCP.
ERCP patients were prospectively randomized into 2 groups; the cocktail group and the controls. For induction, a combination of 25 mg of meperidine and 2.5 mg of midazolam were injected in both groups. In the cocktail group, a bolus dose of propofol 1 mg/kg was administered and continuously infused. In the controls, 25 mg of meperidine or 2.5 mg/kg of midazolam were titrated to maintain the level of sedation. ;
