Abstract
Medical records of the 575 children who underwent
gastrointestinal endoscopy outside the operating room were
investigated retrospectively. The most frequently used
combinations were propofol-midazolam-fentanyl in 83.2% of the
procedures and propofol-midazolam in 13.8% of the procedures.
24 (3.4%) of 703 procedures had complications due to sedation
anesthesia; 11 had hypoxia and 8 had pain in the injection area.
Sedation anesthesia practice provided by an anesthesiologist
outside the operating room enables gastrointestional endoscopic
procedures to be carried out more safely.
