Goals of Sedation
•
•
•
•
•
Guard the patient’s safety
Minimize pain
Provide anxiolysis
Control behavior
Return the patient to a state in which safe
discharge is possible
Risks and Complications
• AIRWAY, AIRWAY, AIRWAY
–
–
–
–
airway obstruction
hypoventilation
apnea
aspiration
• Hemodynamic impairment
Risks and Complications
• Numerous case reports exist describing
complications from sedation and analgesia
• Few large series exist involving a numerator
(adverse events) and a denominator (total
number of sedations)
Adverse Sedation Events in Pediatrics: A Critical Incident Analysis of
Contributing Factors
Pediatrics 2000; 105: 805-814
•4 physicians reviewed adverse
sedation events for probable causes
•95 events were reviewed
Safety Conclusions
• Respiratory events are the most frequent
initiating events
• All areas using sedation have reported
adverse events
Pediatrics 2000; 105: 805-814
Safety Conclusions
• Adverse events involved:
–
–
–
–
–
Multiple drugs
Drug overdose
Inadequate medical evaluation
Inadequate monitoring
Inadequate practitioner skills
Pediatrics 2000; 105: 805-814
Medication Conclusions
• Adverse outcome was associated with all
routes of drug adminstration
• Adverse outcome was associated with all
classes of medication, even when given
within the recommended dose range
• Drugs should not be given at home
• Avoid premature discharge

Reappraisal of Lytic Cocktail/Demerol, Phenergan, and Thorazine
(DPT) for the Sedation of Children
Pediatrics 1995; 95: 598-602
“ The DPT cocktail remains a widely used
sedative and analgesic for pediatric patients.
Neither the combination itself nor its dosage is
based on sound pharmacologic data. There is a
high rate of therapeutic failure as well as a high
rate of serious adverse reactions, including
respiratory depression and death, associated with
its use.”

1 year old sedation for MRI
• What physical evaluation are you going to
perform before the sedation?
Preoperative Evaluation of the
Upper Airway
• Tongue versus pharyngeal size
• Atlanto-occipital joint extension
• Anterior mandibular space (thyromental
distance
• Dental examination
Risk Classification
• Low – Relatively healthy patient.
• Moderate – Patient with a significant
pathologic process that is difficult to
control.
• High – Patient with a severe pathologic
process that has produced potentially
irreversible end-organ damage.
Patients at Increased Risk
• Prior adverse response to sedation
• Airway problems: OSA, difficult intubation,
or syndrome with airway abnormalities
• Significant respiratory symptoms
• High risk classification
• Delayed gastric emptying or aspiration risk
1 year old sedation for MRI
• How are you going to monitor the patient?
Monitoring
• Patient response as a guide to level of sedation
– Children may be an exception
• Continuous pulse oximetry
• Ventilation
– Observation, auscultation, or ETCO2
• ECG and BP for all patients under deep sedation
and when indicated for moderate sedation
Ventilation
• Pulse oximeter is not a ventilation monitor
• Impedence Pneumography does not monitor
ventilation
• Observation and auscultation for the
uncovered patient
• ETCO2 for the covered patient
Manpower
• Minimum of two persons:
– One to perform the procedure
– Another to monitor the patient
• The monitoring person may assist with
short, interruptible tasks during moderate
sedation
• The monitoring person may have no other
duties during deep sedation
Documentation
• Clarian Sedation Flowsheet
• Medicines
– Dosages, times, and routes
• Vital signs every 5 minutes
– Minimum SaO2 and RR
– BP and HR if indicated
Post - Sedation
• Observe in quiet environment for resedation
• Impaired patients should be back to
presedation status
• Normal patients should be fully awake
Post - Sedation
• Observe for minimum 1 hour if reversal
agent given
• Physician must perform a post-procedure
evaluation
• Adverse outcomes documented on
flowsheet:
– Conversion to GA, emergency intervention,
respiratory complications, death

Specific Drugs
• Study the pharmacology of the drugs you
plan on using
• Become an expert on a few, appropriate
drugs
• Start with small doses and titrate to effect
• When combining drugs, decrease the dose
of each component
Specific Drugs
• Sufficient time should elapse before
redosing
• Tailor your drugs to need – if you don’t
need analgesia, don’t give a narcotic
Other Considerations
• Consult a specialist for high risk patients
• Maintain your airway skills
