Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Continuous EEG characteristics of subjects before injection and after recovery from propofol/remimazolam.;Dream experiences of subjects during sedation with propofol/remimazolam.;Short-term emotional state changes (assessed by GAD-7 and PHQ-9 scales) in subjects before propofol/remimazolam injection and on day 5 after the procedure.;Subject's satisfaction with the anesthesia experience during painless gastroentroscopy.;
