Sedation-Related Adverse Events in Gastrointestinal Endoscopy

Gastrointestinal endoscopy is a means to improve the accuracy of clinical diagnosis and effectiveness of treatment of gastrointestinal diseases and is widely used in the treatment of gastrointestinal diseases. Most gastrointestinal endoscopy examinations are performed under anesthesia under non-tracheal intubation conditions, lacking airway protection. In addition to operation-related complications such as bleeding, perforation, local infection, and gas-related complications, the occurrence of sedation-related adverse events also raises concerns.
