Summary
Many studies address safety of non-anesthesiologist propofol sedation (NAPS) for
gastrointestinal endoscopy. Target Controlled Infusion (TCI) is a sophisticated tool for
providing optimal sedation regimen and avoiding under or oversedation. The objective of the
study is to compare standard moderate sedation during upper endoscopy and colonoscopy versus
propofol NAPS.
