Ketodex Versus Ketofol in Adolescent Gastrointestinal Endoscopy

About This Study

Gastrointestinal endoscopic procedures in adolescents require effective sedoanalgesia to ensure procedural comfort and prevent agitation. Pain control is an essential component of these procedures, and current practice commonly involves low-dose combinations of anesthetic agents. Sedoanalgesia protocols are selected according to patient characteristics and the anesthesiologist's clinical experience. This prospective observational study aims to compare the effects of ketodex and ketofol on intraoperative procedural comfort, postoperative recovery, and patient satisfaction in adolescents undergoing gastrointestinal endoscopy.
