Neuroleptanalgesia in upper alimentary endoscopy

H I Le Brun. Gut. 1976 Aug.

Abstract

Droperidol and fentanyl have been used with diazepam in 250 peroral endoscopies because of dissatisfaction with standard methods of sedation. Excellant analgesia has been achieved and complications have been negligible. The technique does not require the presence of an anaesthetist.
