case_images: During the procedures several adverse events have been recorded by the anesthesiology team (Fig.1), including short duration hypoxia in 4 patients (3.6%), need to suction secretions in 7 patients, (6.4%) or need for bag mask ventilation in 1 patient (0.9%).

case_images: The other 20 patients (18.2%) had the following side effects from sedation (Fig.2): drowsiness in 5 patients (4.5%), nausea in 3 patients (2.8%), vomiting in one patient (0.9%).

case_images: These underlying pathologies could explain the higher separate incidence of low systolic pressure, mild bradycardia, hypoxia and lung secretion in excess during EUS and interventional EUS (Fig.3).

case_images: Hence, the separate incidence of adverse reactions after the procedures revealed a higher incidence of mild events as drowsiness, headache, coughing especially after EUS and interventional EUS (Fig.4).
