Obesity is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Sedation of the procedure for these patients can pose significant challenges. Conscious sedation is the cause of many potentially serious unplanned events during endoscopy. A case report of sedation with propanidid in a patient with super obesity for endoscopic procedure is presented. Propanidid has demonstrated its safety and efficacy in short procedures in obese people.
