As the field of endoscopic sedation experiences rapid change, the SedationFacts web site offers practicing Gastroenterologists, Gastroenterology nurses and Gastroenterology fellows a comprehensive resource for current, objective, evidence-based information concerning endoscopic sedation.
This website was created to provide Gastroenterology clinicians information that can sustain and improve patient safety associated with endoscopic sedation. Physicians, nurses and fellows are invited to use SedationFacts.org to access articles by leading Gastroenterology physicians and nurses, find in-depth information on the physiology and pharmacology of endoscopic sedation, and get helpful links to current practice guidelines and regulations.
SedationFacts.org represents a joint initiative of four Gastroenterology physician and nurse associations:
Society of Gastroenterology Nurses and Associates, Inc. (SGNA)
The SGNA has members on the executive, content and site promotion committees.
American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE)
The ASGE serves as program director for SedationFacts, and members of the ASGE chair the executive and content committees.
