In this episode, Andreia Trigo, Martin Lees and Craig Cook talk about Creating Change in Sedation Practice: Endoscopy.

Endoscopy is frequently used in the diagnosis and treatment of gastrointestinal (GI) disorders. However, patient fear and anxiety related to the anticipated discomfort of the procedure can limit willingness to undergo endoscopy and, in some cases, affect the endoscopist’s ability to successfully complete the procedure. Sedation prior to and during endoscopy can decrease patient anxiety and discomfort, and improve the quality of the endoscopic procedure.
