Abstract
The American Society of Anesthesiologists' (ASA) physical status classification has been used for over 50 years by anesthesiologists and surgeons as a predictor of peri-operative morbidity and mortality. The ability of ASA class to predict peri-endoscopy adverse events has not been studied. We hypothesize that increasing ASA class is associated with higher rates of peri-procedural adverse events in endoscopic procedures. Our aim was to describe the prevalence of immediate endoscopic adverse events stratified by ASA class and endoscopic procedure type.
