Pediatric endoscopy sedation protocols vary globally. A center

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Gastroenterology
  • Sedation Management
  • Endoscopic Procedures

Context:

  • Pediatric endoscopy (PE) sedation practices lack global consensus.
  • Current approaches range from no sedation to general anesthesia.
  • Optimal pediatric endoscopy sedation (PES) remains debated.

Purpose:

  • To review current sedation drugs for pediatric endoscopy.
  • To describe a specific center's protocol for conscious sedation in PE.
  • To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the described PES protocol.

Summary:

  • A protocol involving oral flunitrazepam, IV pethidine, and midazolam boluses was used for 188 PE procedures.
  • Conscious sedation was achieved safely in all cases, with satisfactory outcomes in approximately 65% of patients.

  • Minor complications included transient desaturation (2%) and one instance of respiratory depression, both managed effectively.

    • Impact:

    • Demonstrates the feasibility and safety of conscious sedation for pediatric endoscopy.
    • Highlights the importance of resuscitation skills for endoscopy teams.
    • Provides a potential model for standardized, safe sedation in pediatric GI procedures.
