The benefits of the sedation provided by propofol in digestive endoscopy, either by an endoscopist or an anesthetist, are now undeniable. One of these benefits is a shorter recovery time after endoscopy. Assessment scales are currently available that allow a more efficient discharge from endoscopy units.

Background And Study Aims: Balanced propofol sedation (BPS) administered by adequately trained non-anaesthesiologist personnel has gained popularity in GI endoscopy because of its shorter procedure and recovery time, high patient satisfaction, and low rate of adverse events (AEs), despite being considered controversial. We report data from an audit of endoscopist-directed (ED) nurse-administered sedation in an Italian referral hospital.
Patients And Methods: Consecutive endoscopic procedures performed between 2020 and 2022 were considered.
Objectives: Appropriate sedative and analgesic selection is essential to reduce patient discomfort and body movement to safely conduct endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS). However, few cases have examined sedation with propofol in EUS, and few studies the need for combined analgesia. In this study, we retrospectively evaluated the usefulness and safety of propofol without analgesics for sedation in biliopancreatic observational EUS.

Background: Colonoscopic enteral tube placement using current methods has some shortcomings, such as the complexity of the procedure and tube dislodgement. The magnetic navigation technique (MNT) has been proven effective for nasoenteral feeding tube placement, and is associated with reduced cost and time to initiation of nutrition. This study attempted to develop a novel method for enteral tube placement using MNT.

Background: The effects of anesthetics on liver and kidney functions after infantile living-related liver transplantation (LRLT) are unclear. This study aimed to investigate the effects of propofol-based total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) or desflurane-based inhalation anesthesia on postoperative liver and kidney functions in infant recipients after LRLT and to evaluate hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (HIRI).
Methods: Seventy-six infants with congenital biliary atresia scheduled for LRLT were randomly divided into two anesthesia maintenance groups: group D with continuous inhalation of desflurane and group P with an infusion of propofol.

Cyclic vomiting syndrome (CVS) is a chronic digestive disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of severe nausea and vomiting. The perioperative management of patients with CVS undergoing general anesthesia is challenging, especially when combined with obesity. This case report describes the successful management of a patient with CVS and obesity who underwent dental surgery under general anesthesia.
