Control of autonomic activity through the use of appropriate sedation may be critical in this matter.

The effect of midazolam on the induction dose-response curve for alfentanil was studied in non-premedicated ASA physical status I or II patients. The response to the verbal command was used as an end point of anaesthesia. Dose-response curves for midazolam, alfentanil, and their combination were determined with a probit procedure, and compared with ...

Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 2000
A review of the recent literature reveals an increasing published opinion in favour of unsedated endoscopy. However, recent studies show that the majority of US patients are unwilling or unable to tolerate this. In order for there to be a shift towards unsedated endoscopy, physicians will have to change patients' expectations.

With careful use of antihistamines central effects may be minimised or even largely avoided while adequate peripheral antihistaminic activity is preserved. Tolerance to central effects may develop quickly with some drugs, so that sedation is no longer troublesome after a few days.
