Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if patient administered propofol sedation results in superior patient satisfaction compared to nurse administered propofol sedation in diagnostic colonoscopies.

• Does self administration of the sedative propofol increase patient satisfaction? Researchers will compare patient administered propofol sedation (where the patient administers propofol by pushing a button) with nurse administered propofol sedation (where a nurse gives the patient bolus doses of propofol as deemed necessary)

Participants will:

* Be randomized to either sedation route.
* Answer a preendoscopy questioneere and a postendoscopy questioneere 1 hour after the examination as well as one week after the examination.

Conditions

  • Colonoscopy (Procedure)

Interventions

DRUG

Self administred propofol

Patients will self administer propofol by pushing a button. When pushed a dose of 5 mg propofol will be given intravenously. The button can be pushed a maximum of 8 times per minute.

DRUG

Nurse assisted propofol sedation

The endoscopy nurse will administer bolus dosus of propofol (10 mg iv) as needed during the examination
