Very often, patients receive sedative medication before a diagnostic, therapeutic, or
surgical procedure to help them relax, keep them calm, and to relieve them from pain. This is
called procedural sedation. During procedural (mild to moderate) sedation, a patient is first
given a pain-relief medication (analgesic) and then a medication to help him/her relax and
keep him/her calm (sedative). Propofol is the drug commonly used for sedation because it
releases immediately into the blood stream and causes fast sedation. AQUAVAN (fospropofol
disodium) is made as a slow release version of propofol, allowing for fast sedation and
possibly faster recovery and discharge.
This study is intended to compare several different doses of AQUAVAN in patients having a
colonoscopy in order to find the right dose that will get patients to a level of mild to
moderate (procedural) sedation.

This is an exploratory clinical trial designed to examine the efficacy, safety and
tolerability of fospropofol (AQUAVAN) Injection compared to propofol (DISOPRIVAN) Injectable
Emulsion when used to preoperatively sedate, induce, and maintain general anesthesia and to
postoperatively sedate patients undergoing elective coronary artery surgery.
