No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of the study is to determine if more force is used during colonoscopy when patients receive monitored anesthesia with propofol versus conscious sedation. Force measurements will be performed using the colonoscopy force monitor (CFM). This device measures the magnitude and direction of force applied to the insertion tube of a standard colonoscope during colonoscopy.

Conditions

  • Outpatient Colonoscopy for Colorectal Cancer Screening or for Symptoms Suggestive of Colonic Diseases

Interventions

DEVICE
