    Journal: Gastrointest Endosc Clin N Am; 2008 Oct; 18(4):717-25, ix. PubMed ID: 18922410.
    Abstract:
    Gastroenterologist directed propofol has been proven safe in more than 220,000 published cases. Administration of low doses of opioid and/or benzodiazepine ("balanced propofol sedation") is the safest format for gastroenterologist directed propofol. Specific training is needed to undertake gastroenterologist directed propofol administration.
