Brief summary
Interstitial cystitis is a condition where a defect in the protective lining of the bladder causes the urinary symptoms such as urgency, frequency and pain/burning on urination. One way to help ease the symptoms of this disease is to fill the bladder full of water every 4 to 6 months. Since this is a painful procedure an anesthesiologist will give you a drug that will make you unconscious for the procedure. General anesthesia can be given to you through an IV tube that is placed in a vein in your arm. There are only a few agents that induce sedation and these agents have certain disadvantages such as waking up slowly, low blood pressure, and pain at the injection site and a prolonged time to consciousness. This study will be comparing doses of a new IV sedation induction agent drug to put you to sleep called fospropofol (Lusedra®).
Interventions
Group 1 will receive 6.5 milligram per kilogram of Fospropofol (Lusedra®) injection (IV).
Group 2 will receive 10 milligram per kilogram of Fospropofol (Lusedra®) injection (IV).
Group 3 will receive 12 milligram per kilogram of Fospropofol (Lusedra®) injection (IV).

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Male or female outpatients -\> 18-65 years of age, * weight 60-90 kg, * with an American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status of P1 to P3 are eligible for enrollment. * Female patients of child bearing age will have a negative urine pregnancy test result and have used an acceptable method of birth control for \>1 month prior to study enrollment. * Patients will be NPO \>6 hours and scheduled for outpatient urological hydrodilation under general anesthesia. * Patients also will not be enrolled in another study or have received an experimental drug in the prior 30 days.
Exclusion criteria
are: * hypersensitivity or allergy to any anesthesia, opioids, benzodiazepines or any drugs used in the study, failure to meet NPO status or an abnormal, clinically significant ECG finding. * Another exclusion is the presence of a difficult airway that would prevent use of the laryngeal mask airway (LMA) or successful LMA insertion. * Women who are breast feeding would also be excluded from participation.
