Although moderate (conscious) sedation is intended during elective gastrointestinal endoscopy, unintended levels of deep sedation occur resulting in respiratory and cardiac compromise. We present here use of Ayre’s T-piece circuit along with nasopharyngeal airway for Endoscopic Retrograde CholangioPancreatography (ERCP) procedure under sedation which negates all the above problems, ensuring safety of the patient.
