Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Rate of Administration of Propofol 1% Required to Obtain Uniform Sedation During Endoscopy8 months

The propofol will be administered by an expert anaesthetist in repeated bolus (10-20 mg each 30-60 seconds) after an initial induction dosage (0.5-0.6 mg/kg ASA (American Society of Anaesthesiologists) I-II or 0.25-0.35 mg/kg ASA III-IV) to obtain an uniform level of sedation (OAAS 3 and bispectral index (BIS) 70-80) and adequate perceived patient tolerance (no gag-reflex, cough, sudden movements).

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Participants With Adverse Events in Both GroupsParticipants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 2 hours postprocedure

Hypoxemia (SatO2\<90% or \>4% if the baseline was under 93%), bradycardia (\<60 bpm or \>10% from baseline), hypotension (systolic blood pressure under 90 mmHg and/or diastolic 60 mmHg), anaphylactic reaction, aspiration o methaemoglobinemia.

Likert Four Elements Scale to Evaluate the Satisfaction of Endoscopist8 months

Define as easiness to reach the expected objectives for endoscopy without patient interference: very satisfied, satisfied, neutral, unsatisfied.

Likert Four Elements Scale to Evaluate the Satisfaction of Anaesthetist8 months

Define as easiness to reach and maintain the level of sedation and patient comfort during endoscopy: very satisfied, satisfied, neutral, unsatisfied.
