Abstract:
The evidence on the attitude of 60 cancer out-patients to fibrocolonoscopy carried out under general anesthesia was evaluated versus different procedures of intravenous injection. Most patients were scared prior to examination; 83.3% felt sleepy during the procedure while 85% of those anesthetized wouldn't mind receiving narcosis for repeat examination. Propofol (diprivan) alone showed an advantage over midazolam (dormicum) in being more tolerable and cutting stay at hospital by a third. Ketamin proved undesirable due to psychomimetic effects and delayed regaining of consciousness.
