Dr. Ali Saad

Clarification of the problem: Evidence is amassing that non-anesthesiologist-directed propofol (NAAP) sedation has a security and feasibility profile comparative or superior to anything that outfitted by benzodiazepines with or without opioids. The guidelines starting at now open underline the essentialness of appropriate patient decision, staff getting ready, checking, and low-estimation sedation traditions for use security. Methodology and theoretical orientation: Propofol given with initial bolus: 1.5 to 2.5 mg/kg, patient will be apneic inside 30 to 90 seconds the imbuement at rate of 80-120 µg/kg/min. Conclusion and significance: It is unrealistic that the use of propofol by non-anesthesia specialists will stop. From different points of view, propofol might be as secured as cures that are more standard. Watching must be standardized and adequate. Given their availability, experience, and general condition, anesthesiologists ought to be at the forefront to pick customs, start preparing, perform or organize competency audits, and set up quality declaration programs
