Abstract
Despite the lack of national society recommendation or data to support its usage, ECG monitoring during moderate sedation has become commonplace. ECG monitoring in an endoscopy unit requires additional training for the endoscopy nurses and purchase of monitoring equipment. Interruptions in procedures due to lead malfunction may occur and decrease room efficiency. In addition, changes in ECG may lead to intensive and costly evaluation without ultimate gain. The purpose of this study was to determine the rate of clinically significant dysrhythmias in healthy persons undergoing moderate sedation utilizing continuous electrocardiography.
