This study aimed to evaluate the association between Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI), age-adjusted CCI (ACCI), and propofol requirement, and to develop a model for individualized sedation.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This retrospective cohort study included 1,555 adult patients undergoing advanced gastrointestinal endoscopy (primarily endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and endoscopic ultrasonography) under bispectral index (BIS)-guided target-controlled infusion (TCI) propofol sedation at a tertiary referral center between 2017 and 2023. The primary outcome was the lean body mass (LBM)-adjusted propofol infusion rate. Patients were classified into higher- and lower-propofol requirement groups for logistic regression analyses, and sensitivity analyses were performed using the continuous outcome variable. Model discrimination was evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) with internal split-sample validation.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Older age, male sex, longer procedure duration, and higher CCI were independently associated with a lower probability of higher propofol requirement in multivariable analysis. Sensitivity analyses using the continuous LBM-adjusted propofol infusion rate yielded consistent findings. The model demonstrated good discrimination in both the training cohort (AUC 0.831, 95% CI 0.808\u20130.853) and validation cohort (AUC 0.841, 95% CI 0.780\u20130.882).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Older age, male sex, and higher comorbidity burden were independently associated with lower relative propofol requirements during advanced gastrointestinal endoscopy under BIS-guided TCI sedation.
