  • Title: Propofol use by gastroenterologists-the European experience.
    Author: Heuss LT, Peter S.
    Journal: Gastrointest Endosc Clin N Am; 2008 Oct; 18(4):727-38, ix. PubMed ID: 18922411.
    Abstract:
    The administration of propofol as a sedative in gastrointestinal endoscopies became very popular in many European countries during the last years. Nevertheless there are huge regional differences in the way that the drug is used. Switzerland, the country with highest propagation of gastroenterologist guided propofol sedation, serves as a case study of its safe use in daily practice. The experiences of this spread are summarized in this article.
