Ciprofol is a new anesthetic, which combines with γ- Aminobutyric acid-a (GABAA) receptor. Ciprofol has shown equivalent anesthetic efficacy of propofol at 1/4 to 1/5 of the dosage. Ciprofol has the pharmacodynamic characteristics of rapid onset, stable and rapid recovery. Phase III clinical results showed that the incidence of injection pain and respiratory and circulatory depression of ciprofol was lower than that of propofol. Therefore, ciprofol has a good application prospect in sedation for gastrointestinal endoscopy, especially for obese patients. In the current study, we would explore the proper dose of Ciprofol in sedated gastrointestinal endoscopy in obese patients.

The first patient received Ciprofol 0.3mg/kg (actual body weight) at a rate of 1 mg/s. If the desired depth of sedation/anesthesia reached, then it was judged as negative, and the dose of Ciprofol in next patient would be decreased by one concentration gradient (the difference between two adjacent drugs was 1:1.1); If the desired sedation/anesthesia depth was not achieved, then it was judged as positive. And the dose of Ciprofol in next patient would be increased by one concentration gradient. Patients were enrolled consecutively until the trial was terminated at the eighth crossing point (positive to negative or negative to positive).
