Effect of Discontinuing Propofol After Cecal Intubation on Patient's Psychomotor Recovery Following Colonoscopy

Summary

This study investigates whether discontinuing the continuous intravenous infusion of propofol immediately after cecal intubation would reduce the patient's recovery time without compromising their comfort or convenience. It would also reduce procedural costs and the risk of medical hazards due to potentially excessive sedation.
