Patient-controlled sedation for colonoscopy comfort
Treatments studied
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study compares two ways of giving sedation during a colonoscopy: one where you control your own sedation with a button, and the standard method where doctors give the sedation. The goal is to see which method makes patients more comfortable and satisfied.
