Sedation Practice Outside the Operating Room for Pediatric Gastrointestinal Endoscopy. Medical records of the 575 children who underwent gastrointestinal endoscopy outside the operating room were investigated retrospectively. The most frequently used combinations were propofol-midazolam-fentanyl in 83.2% of the procedures and propofol-midazolam in 13.8% of the procedures. 24 (3.4%) of 703 procedures had complications due to sedation anesthesia; 11 had hypoxia and 8 had pain in the injection area. Sedation anesthesia practice provided by an anesthesiologist outside the operating room enables gastrointestional endoscopic procedures to be carried out more safely.
