About Sedation

Reduction of his/her response to the external stimuli i.e; anxiety, depression, irritability, excitement, stress etc. Sedation is caused by sedatives.

One of the most important goals of clinicians is patient comfort. When patients present to the emergency department (ED), treating the pain and anxiety that accompany the chief complaint are critical to patient satisfaction and quality of care.

Prior to the administration of medications, clinicians must know the level of sedation required for a given procedure and the appropriate dose of the pharmacologic agent or agents chosen.
