| Core Tip |
As the first United States medical center to adopt computer assisted propofol sedation (CAPS) technology for routine clinical use, we report our one-year experience with CAPS for colonoscopy. Between September 2014 and August 2015, 2677 patients underwent colonoscopy with CAPS. The colonoscopy completion and polyp detection rates were similar to that of historical controls who received midazolam and fentanyl sedation. Procedure and recovery times were shorter. In CAPS patients, there were only 2 cases of desaturation requiring mask ventilation, and no sedation-related serious adverse events. In conclusion, CAPS is a safe, effective and efficient means of providing moderate sedation for colonoscopy. |
