Brief Summary:
Upper endoscopy is uncomfortable for most patients. Meperidine has both sedative and analgesic effects, so its use may be helpful for patients receiving upper endoscopy.
Detailed Description:
Unsedated esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) is a useful tool for upper gastrointestinal tract examination and therapy, but it is uncomfortable for many patients. Meperidine has been widely used in colonoscopic examination for many years; however, its use in EGD has not been completely evaluated.
