Rapidly Metabolized Anesthetics: Novel Alternative Agents for Procedural Sedation

Joseph Colao and Daniel Rodriguez-Correa

The increased demand for procedural sedation in the ambulatory setting has prompted the development of anesthetic agents that anesthesiologists and non-anesthesiologists could administer easily and safely. In this article, we discuss novel short-acting agents in development or in clinical trials that may serve as alternatives to current anesthetics for procedural sedation.
