How has sedation in endoscopy evolved over the years? What’s the current practice and how it varies within the UK?

Dr George Webster, consultant gastroenterologist and hepatologist at the University College London Hospitals, answers these questions in conversation with Frontline Gastroenterology’s Trainee Associate Editor James Maurice (Imperial College London). They also explore the details of a paper recently published by the journal and the training opportunities for young gastroenterologists.
