A Comparison of Remimazolam Besylate and Propofol Sedation in Patients Undergoing Colonoscopic Polypectomy

Summary

The goal of this prospective, randomized, controlled study is to compare remimazolam besilat/sufentanyl and propofol/sufentanyl in patients during colonoscopic polypectomies procedures. Patients undergoing colonoscopic polypectomies in procedural sedation using remimazolam besylate/sufentanyl are circulatory and respiratory as or more stable when compared with propofol/sufentanyl sedation.
