Study of a new sedation medicine for stomach and colon procedures
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests a new sedation medicine (Methoxyethyl Etomidate Hydrochloride) for people having an upper endoscopy or colonoscopy. The goal is to see if it works well and is safe for routine procedures.

This trial compares two ways to keep you comfortable during a scope procedure (like colonoscopy or endoscopy): one using opioid pain medications, and one without. Researchers want to see if avoiding opioids is safe and effective.
This study tests two different sedative medicines to see which one helps children aged 6 to 12 breathe more safely during a gastroscopy (a scope test to look at the stomach). It compares a new drug, esketamine, with a combination of remazolam and propofol to find the one with fewer breathing problems.
This study looks at how much etomidate (a sleep-inducing medicine used during surgery) is needed for people with insomnia compared to those who sleep normally. It aims to help doctors give safer and more effective doses for patients with insomnia who need general anesthesia.
This study compares two different sedation medicines (etomidate combined with propofol vs. propofol alone) to see which works better for people living at high altitudes who are having a gastroscopy. It aims to find a safer, more comfortable option for sedation in this group.
This trial compares two IV anesthesia medicines (propofol and etomidate) during endoscopic procedures. It may help your care team choose the safest, most effective anesthesia approach for patients who need anesthesia for endoscopy.
This trial tests a combination of two sedative medicines (Remimazolam and Esketamine) for elderly patients having a painless stomach and colon exam. The goal is to see if this combination is safe and effective for older adults.
