The Use of Inhalational Nitrous Oxide (Entonox) As The Sole Analgesic Agent During Colonoscopy is Feasible and Efficacious in a Substantial Proportion of Patients: A Review of a Surgeon’s Experience
1. Abstract 1.1. Objective: Colonoscopy is associated with significant discomfort requiring administration of intravenous (IV) sedation and analgesia. Nitrous Oxide (Entonox) has been shown as an alternative analgesic modality but is less frequently used in practice. This study examined the efficacy and applicability of Entonox as sole analgesic agent during colonoscopy. DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.47829/JJGH.2021.62202
