Abstract

The recent wide application of propofol sedation by target-controlled infusion (TCI) has resulted in smoother insertion of gastrointestinal fiberscopes. A 31-year-old male patient complicated with rigid-type cerebral palsy and mild mental retardation was to receive TCI with propofol for gastrointestinal fiberscopy. The initial blood concentration of propofol was 1.2μg/ml, but the target concentration had to be increased to 1.4μg/ml due to gagging and retching at insertion of the fiberscope. After the increase in administration, the procedure were performed smoothly without loss of consciousness. The patient and endoscopist were very satisfied with sedation. No postoperative side effects were experienced.
