Utilization of anesthesia service in endoscopic operations can facilitate the procedural conditions and improve patient satisfaction. Comprehensive preprocedural/preanesthetic assessment should be preceded with focus on medical history, disorders that increase risk of aspiration, NPO status, ASA status, and airway evaluations, as these play an important role in perioperative complications. Preanesthetic assessment should serve as a guide to determining the appropriate depth of sedation for the patient, and indications for general anesthesia with endotracheal intubation should be reviewed. Finally, anesthesia care can be successfully implemented in ambulatory settings, including ambulatory surgery center and ambulatory endoscopy center with appropriate equipment and scheduling.
