Summary

Colonoscopy is an outpatient procedure performed frequently as a screening test for diagnosis and treatment of a wide range of gastrointestinal problems. It is often viewed as an invasive procedure with the potential for embarrassment, discomfort, and worry. Such fears can result in anxiety that may decrease the tolerance and cooperation of the patient, limit the success of the procedure, and increase the likelihood of complications. Therefore, colonoscopy is frequently performed under sedation. The anxiety level of the patient before the procedure may increase the requirement for sedation. It is important for the anesthesiologist to predict the effective dosages of sedation before the procedure to ensure rapid and comfortable sedation as well as prompt recovery and discharge of the patient.

This prospective cohort study is planned to evaluate the effects of pre-procedural anxiety level on the dose of propofol needed for patient and surgeon satisfaction during colonoscopy.
