Core Tip |
There is no data available regarding safety of performing an esophagogastroduodenoscopy in patients with evidence of recent cocaine use. This study compared the prevalence of procedure complications between active and remote cocaine users and found no statistically significant difference between the two groups. Pre- and post-procedure hemodynamics demonstrated only statistically, but not clinically significant changes in blood pressure, heart rate, and oxygenation. Results suggest relative safety in performing this procedure on active cocaine users. Patients in the active group required more general anesthesia; however, given nature of study, the reasoning behind this sedation choice was difficult to determine. |
