A randomized controlled trial on use of propofol alone versus propofol with midazolam, ketamine, and pentazocine “sedato-analgesic cocktail” for sedation during ERCP

Abstract

During ERCP, propofol with a sedato-analgesic cocktail for induction results in improved patient tolerance compared with propofol alone, particularly in younger patients. Generalizations from this study to the Western world and to different cultural groups require further study.
