Summary

This study aims to find the 90% effective dose of tegileridine, a painkiller, when combined with propofol for sedation during painless gastroscopy. Researchers will test different doses in young (18-65) and elderly (65+) adults to see which dose best prevents movement, coughing, or blood pressure changes during the procedure. The goal is to improve sedation safety and effectiveness for both age groups.

Active substance

tegileridine combined with propofol

What this could lead to

If successful, this could establish a precise, safer sedation dose for gastroscopy in different age groups, reducing side effects.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-phase dose-finding study, not a large effectiveness trial. Results may not apply to all patients or procedures.
