Obesity as a risk factor for sedation-related complications during propofol-mediated sedation for advanced endoscopic procedures
Background There are limited data on the safety of anesthesia-assisted endoscopy by using propofol-mediated sedation in obese individuals undergoing advanced endoscopic procedures (AEPs). Objective To study the association between obesity (as measured by body mass index [BMI]) and the frequency of s...
