Anesthesiology study on propofol and colonoscopies featured in U.S. News & World Report

In the article, which examined how to prepare for a colonoscopy, lead author Aurora Quaye, MD, was quoted on research that found deeper sedation using propofol may help find difficult-to-detect serrated polyps during colonoscopy. "Whenever possible, providers are willing to work with patients who request propofol. It is preferred by most patients and providers because the sedation is more effective as well as more efficient due to propofol's speed of onset and ability to rapidly diminish when stopped," Dr. Quaye said.  The study was also featured on WGN-News (Chicago), WHET-TV (ABC; Evansville, Indiana), WQRF-TV (FOX; Rockford, Illinois), and OR Manager.
