About this trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if patient administered propofol sedation results in superior patient satisfaction compared to standard conscious sedation in advanced therapeutic endoscopy.
• Does self administration of the sedative propofol increase patient satisfaction? Researchers will compare patient administered propofol sedation (where the patient administers propofol by pushing a button) with standard conscious sedation
Participants will:
* Be randomized to either sedation route. * Answer a preendoscopy questioneere and a postendoscopy questioneere 1 hour after the examination as well as one week after the examination.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Patient satisfaction

Secondary outcomes
Recovery time
Time before the patient can be discharged from the endoscopy unit.
Procedure duration
Time to completion of the procedure (min)
Adverse events
Any adverse events related to sedation within 30 days
