“…Of reported adverse events, 79 % were syncope, while the more severe adverse events are far less common, e.g., laryngospasm/bronchospasm in 0.15 %, cardiac-related complications in 0.09 % [27]. Male sex, high BMI, high ASA, and longer procedure times are associated with increased risk of adverse events [32]. The present study confirms a significant correlation between high BMI and decreased saturation.…”

The results confirm that pre-emptive intravenous tramadol, administered at 1 mg/kg body weight as an adjunct to midazolam sedation for third molar surgery, offers a safe method. But, it should be noted that our previous study shows that it is not a particularly effective analgesic. Further testing is therefore warranted, using other doses or other drugs, to find a better intravenous protocol for postoperative analgesia, with maximum effect and minimal risk, in outpatient oral and maxillofacial surgery procedures.

“…53 Also, microaspiration occurring during endoscopic sedation may lead to postprocedural pulmonary infections. 54 However, our data do not allow identifying moderate sedation or distinguishing sedationrelated cardiopulmonary events from irrelevant cases. Moreover, studies, including ours, examining both EGD and colonoscopy document a higher prevalence of unplanned hospital use after scheduled outpatient EGD, 9,20 implying a greater need for good clinical triage.…”
