Summary
Very often patients receive medication before a diagnostic procedure, like a colonoscopy, to
help them relax and stay calm during the procedure. This is called procedural or
minimal-to-moderate sedation. One product used for sedation is called propofol. AQUAVAN
(fospropofol disodium) is made as a water soluble form of propofol allowing for rapid
sedation during the entire procedure. This study is designed to test AQUAVAN for sedation
during colonoscopy procedures.
