Before the procedure, a nurse will measure your blood pressure, pulse, and oxygen saturation, using sophisticated noninvasive monitors. An intravenous (IV) tube may be inserted into a vein in your arm, to give you fluids and medication during the procedure. The procedure usually lasts anywhere from 15 to 90 minutes. You may have your throat sprayed with a local anesthetic before the test begins and be given medication through a vein to help you relax during the examination. In some cases, an anesthesiologist or nurse anesthetist may be present to administer your sedation.
