Detailed Description
Autistic children appear with significant frequency for medical services, lots of which requiring procedural sedation or anaesthesia. They have often been described as difficult to sedate or anesthetize due to a variety of ASD symptoms. It is a challenging task to provide safe and effective sedation during the colonoscopic procedure in autism children. Propofol sedation for endoscopic procedures is safe and acceptable for children, especially those who express significant anxiety. Propofol-based sedation turned out to be the most effective dosage regimens, with effectiveness comparable to general anesthesia. The addition of certain dose ketamine to propofol may increase the effectiveness without creating more adverse events.

Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Experimental: eskatemine 0.3mg/kg + propofol eskatemine dose will be 0.3 mg/kg. Propofol dose for the first patient will be 2.5mg/kg. Doses for the subsequent patients will increase or decrease by 0.8 mg/kg using the Dixon Up and Down method. |
Drug: Esketamine
esketamine dose will be 0.3 mg/kg. Propofol dose for the first patient will be 2.5 mg/kg. Doses for the subsequent patients will increase or decrease by 0.8 mg/kg using the Dixon Up and Down method.
Drug: Propofol

| Experimental: eskatemine 0.6mg/kg + propofol eskatemine dose will be 0.6 mg/kg. Propofol dose for the first patient will be 2.0mg/kg. Doses for the subsequent patients will increase or decrease by 0.4 mg/kg using the Dixon Up and Down method. |
Drug: Esketamine
esketamine dose will be 0.6 mg/kg. Propofol dose for the first patient will be 2.0 mg/kg. Doses for the subsequent patients will increase or decrease by 0.4 mg/kg using the Dixon Up and Down method.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Dose of Propofol Required to Prevent Movement (Response) to Insertion of colonoscpopy 1 [Procedure (This outcome is measured at the time of insertion of colonoscopy)]
The objective is to determine the effective bolus dose in 50% of subjects (ED50) of propofol in combination with ketamine 0.3, 0.6mg/kg that produces an adequate depth of anesthesia to prevent minimal or no movement on colonoscopy insertion in children with Autism spectrum disorder.
- Dose of Propofol Required to Prevent Movement (Response) to Insertion of colonoscpopy 2 [Procedure (This outcome is measured at the time of insertion of colonoscopy)]
The objective is to determine the effective bolus dose in 95% of subjects (ED50) of propofol in combination with ketamine 0.3, 0.6mg/kg that produces an adequate depth of anesthesia to prevent minimal or no movement on colonoscopy insertion in children with Autism spectrum disorder.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- movement score during the procedure [during the procudure]
(1 = no movement; 2 = semipurposeful allowing continuation of the procedure; 3 = vigorous purposeful movements withholding the procedure)
- arterial blood pressure [during the procudure]
arterial blood pressure was measured noninvasively at four time points:T0: before induction of sedation,T1: immediately after induction of sedation, T2: complete evaluation of the coln through colonoscopy, T3: at the end of colonic TET procedure。
- adverse event [during the procedure - 24 hours after procedure]
(including hypoxia (SpO2 <93% for >10 s) or respiratory depression (apnea >15 s), hypotension (MAP < 20% from baseline) or bradycardia (HR < 60 x/min and/or decrease in HR > 20% from baseline) were recorded.
