Smart monitoring software for safer sedation during endoscopy
This study tests a computer program that helps doctors watch your vital signs while you are sedated for a routine gastrointestinal procedure, with the goal of making sedation safer and more personalized.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- Your physical health is classified as ASA I, II, or III (generally healthy or with mild to moderate illness).
- You are scheduled for a non-emergency gastrointestinal endoscopy (such as a colonoscopy or upper endoscopy).
- You will receive sedation through an IV line in your arm using two medications called propofol and remifentanil, given by a target-controlled infusion pump.
- You do not have severe heart, lung, or nervous system disease that would interfere with monitoring, and you do not have a known difficult airway.
- You can understand the study information and give written consent.

This study tests whether listening to music during an endoscopy (a tube with a camera used to look inside your digestive tract) can make the procedure more comfortable and less stressful. Participants will wear headphones and listen to music while the procedure is done under sedation.
This study tests a new way to monitor how deeply sedated you are during a colonoscopy or similar procedure. It uses a special consciousness index to help the doctor give you just the right amount of sedation.
This study tests a new way to give anesthesia during painless upper and lower GI exams by using a special monitor that tracks your body's response to pain. The goal is to make the procedure more comfortable and safer for you.
This study tracks patients who receive propofol sedation (a common sleep medication) during routine endoscopy procedures to identify which patients are more likely to experience low blood pressure or low oxygen levels. Results may help doctors predict and prevent these complications.
This trial tests a computer system that controls anesthesia during routine painless gastrointestinal endoscopy. The system learns from past procedures to keep you safely asleep while the doctor examines your digestive tract.
This study compares two ways of monitoring your heart and vital signs during a sedated procedure to examine your digestive tract (ERCP). Researchers want to see if more detailed monitoring helps keep you safer during the procedure.
