Study design
Purpose of the study
Prevention
Allocation to intervention
Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
Allocation will be concealed in opaque envelopes until after patient consent has been obtained
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
Simple randomisation by using a randomisation table created by a computer software (ie. computerised sequence generation)
Masking / blinding
Blinded (masking used)
Who is / are masked / blinded?



Intervention assignment
Parallel
Other design features
Subjects, endoscopists, post-operative observers and data analysts will be blind to group allocation.
Phase

Summary
Brief summary
Patients having colonoscopy under sedation may remain sedated for some hours afterwards. This may mean that they cannot return to work inside or outside the home. Our hypothesis is that patients who receive midazolam and fentanyl, as well as propofol, will be more sedated than those who receive propofol alone, at the time of hospital discharge.
