Do sedation drugs cloud the minds of seniors after a colonoscopy?
NCT ID NCT07384169
Summary
This study aimed to understand how two common sedation drugs affect short-term memory and thinking in adults 65 and older after a colonoscopy. Researchers observed 164 patients, comparing the effects of propofol versus dexmedetomidine. They tested cognitive function before the procedure and again at 2 and 24 hours after to see if one drug was better for preserving mental sharpness.
