Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1. Patients sedations' quality under endoscopic procedures. To measure this an specific checklist was developed. This instrument was used pre and three month after the intervention 2. Knowledge about sedation: this was measured pre and three month after the intervention using a specific multiple choice question test
