Details and patient eligibility

About

A total of 78 subjects undergoing gastroscopy/colonoscopy were randomly assigned to the methoxetomidate hydrochloride group and the etomidate group according to the ratio of 1:1:1 with etomidate as the control group, 26 cases in each group. All subjects were blinded to treatment allocation. Screening assessments for all subjects will be completed within D-14 to D-2 before the first dose. For all subjects who received the investigational drug, they were required to return to the research center on D2-5 to complete the corresponding examination before being discharged from the group. To preliminarily evaluate the efficacy and safety of ET-26 in gastroscopy/colonoscopy.
