Sedation and analgesia affects the quality of the procedure, patient co-operation and compliance as well as endoscopist's satisfaction. Despite the use of numerous sedation and analgesic techniques for GI endoscopy procedures, the best method is still controversial. A wide variety of procedures have been reported worldwide for anesthesia during gastrointestinal endoscopy in adults.The current survey was primarily designed to provide national data on current sedation and monitoring practices that was carried out during gastrointestinal endoscopy. Secondary objectives were to provide data on the endoscopic application of the turkish gastroenterologist.

The questionnaire consisting of 20 questions about the anesthesia methods applied in the procedures in the endoscopy unit will be sent to 1000 gastroenterologists registered in the Turkish Gastroenterology Association by e-mail.
