[Effects of remifentanil on awakening of propofol sedated patients submitted to upper gastrointestinal endoscopy: a randomized clinical trial].

CONCLUSIONS: The combination of propofol with remifentanil at a dose of 0.2 μg.kg-1 was effective in improving the quality of sedation, and at doses of 0.2 μg.kg-1 and 0.3 μg.kg-1 reduced the time to spontaneous eye opening and post-anesthetic recovery in comparison to sedation with propofol administered alone.
