Su1056 PROPOFOL VERSUS MIDAZOLAM SEDATION FOR ELECTIVE ENDOSCOPY IN PATIENTS WITH CIRRHOSIS. A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW AND META-ANALYSIS OF RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED TRIALS

Patients with cirrhosis frequently require sedation for elective endoscopic procedures. Several sedation protocols are available, but choosing an appropriate sedative in patients with cirrhosis is challenging. We aimed to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of available literature to compare propofol and midazolam for sedation in patients with cirrhosis during elective endoscopic procedures in an attempt to understand the best approach.
