Propofol-fentanyl versus propofol-dexmedetomidine in outpatient procedures sedation: a triple-blind, randomized controlled clinical trial
Single doses of fentanyl or dexmedetomidine combined with propofol resulted in equivalent patient satisfaction, safety, and discharge times. The propofol-fentanyl combination demonstrated superior sedation adequacy from the surgeon's perspective and facilitated a faster emergence from anesthesia.
