This study demonstrated that endoscopy can be safely done in OSA patients using conscious sedation, and the complication rate is not significantly different than patients without OSA.

Results: 101 endoscopy procedures were reviewed, including 27 upper endoscopies, 73 colonoscopies and one enteroscopy. 96 males and 5 females were included, with an average …
