The Most-Effective Sedation:

RMGA is pleased to offer the most-effective sedation available for your colonoscopy procedure. Propofol is a fast-acting, intravenously administered hypnotic agent used for general anesthesia and procedural sedation. It is becoming more popular for procedural sedation and may become the preferred method of sedation across the nation, due to its many potential benefits, including:

• Improved Comfort

• Faster Onset of Sedation

• Faster Patient Recovery

• Better Polyp Detection Rates

RMGA’s Board Certified Gastroenterologist, Dr. Rajesh Jain, says this about the use of Propofol to sedate patients for procedures, “Propofol is so much better than previous methods of sedation because there is much more control on how the pain medication is working, which allows us to better manage the patient’s level of comfort during the exam.”
