Popis: Aims To compare the efficacy and safety of esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD)-colonoscopy and colonoscopy-EGD sequences for patients subjected to same-day bidirectional endoscopy under remifentanil and propofol sedation. Method A total of 209 eligible outpatients scheduled for diagnostic same-day bidirectional endoscopy between February 16, 2016 and April 30, 2016 were randomly assigned to the EGD-colonoscopy (n=106) and colonoscopy-EGD (n=103) sequence groups. The primary endpoint was the total dose of propofol required for the procedure. Secondary endpoints included the duration of endoscopy, patient satisfaction, adverse effects, endoscopy findings, and cardiopulmonary responses of the patients. Results Patients in the two groups were similar in terms of demographic and clinical data (P>0.05). EGD-colonoscopy sequence group had lesser requirement of propofol for sedation (P
