Droperidol is a neuroleptic agent with anti-emetic properties that produces mild sedation, reduced anxiety, and a state of mental detachment and indifference to one's surroundings. Routine premedication with droperidol has been shown to improve sedation during esophagogastroduodenoscopy and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. The purpose of this randomized double-blind placebo-controlled study was to determine whether premedication with droperidol improves sedation during routine upper endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) in a cost-effective manner.
