Study summary

The objective of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of dexmedetomidine with other sedatives in sedation during endoscopy by analyzing the most recently published interventional trials and observational studies.

Read the detailed description

A variety of sedatives are available in procedural sedation and the efficacy \& safety have been compared in several trials for procedural sedation. However, none of clinical trial has enough number of patients to clarify the conclusive differences among sedatives. Thus, pooling all available studies together systematically by network meta-analysis for GI endoscopic procedure may provide a better understanding of efficacy and safety of sedatives. Therefore we would like to conduct a network meta-analysis to analyze the outcomes of GI endoscopy by using the most recently-published interventional trials.
