Core Tip

Core Tip: Safety, comfort and quality of gastrointestinal endoscopy are the concerns for both patients and doctors. Low-dose synthetic opioids play an important role in this procedure. In China, fentanyl, sufentanil and dezocine are the top three choices. Oliceridine should be paid more attention when performing related studies.
