Alfentanil Versus Remifentanil in Patient-controlled Sedation During Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP)

NCT01350037

Phase 4 Completed 81 enrolled Helsinki University Central Hospital
RandomizedParallel-groupTriple-blindTreatment

Summary

Self-administration of propofol and opioid mixture by the patient him- or herself (patient-controlled sedation, PCS) could be successful alternative to the anesthesiologists-managed deep sedation during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). However, it is not known which opioid would be the most suitable for PCS. The aim of this double-blind study was to compare remifentanil and alfentanil in PCS during ERCP.
