Sedation levels
Sedation levels
| Level | Definition | Comments |
| Minimal Sedation | Standard pain medications | |
| Moderate Sedation | Awake and able to respond to questions | use in: LP, I+D |
| Dissociative Sedation | Trance-like state, airway reflexes preserved | |
| Deep Sedation | React purposefully to painful stimuli | use in: Reduction |
| General Anesthesia | Unarousable, requires intubation/advanced airway |
Procedural Checklist[1]
- Consent in chart
- PIV with fluids running
- ETCO2 and NC connected to patient
- Airway preparation
- Suction with Yankauer attached
- BVM attached to wall oxygen
- Oral/nasal airways
- Mac/Miller blades
- ET tubes with stylets
- Meds at bedside
- Sedation Meds
- Narcan 0.4mg if opioid being used, not drawn up
- Epinephrine, cardiac syringe (1:10,000) unopened and 10 cc NS Flush with needle
- Glycopyrrolate, 1 vial; not drawn up
- Strongly consider child life
Fasting
- No need to delay procedure based on fasting time. Preprocedural fasting for any duration has not demonstrated a reduction in the risk of emesis or aspiration when administering procedural sedation and analgesia (ACEP Level B) [2]
- Some specialty societies recommend:
- 2-hour fasting time for clear liquids
- 4-hour fasting time for breast milk
- 6-hour fasting time for solids
Airway Monitoring
- Capnography may be used as an adjunct to pulse oximetry and clinical assessment to detect hypoventilation and apnea earlier than pulse oximetry and/or clinical assessment alone. However, there is a lack of evidence that capnography reduces the incidence of serious adverse events (neurologic injury caused by hypoxia, aspiration, death) (ACEP Level B). [2]
- Placing the patient on ETCO2 + SpO2 is ideal[3]
- Position the patient in a position you would intubate if needed (ear at level of sternal notch)
- Consider nasal airway in patients with likely OSA
Sedation Medications
Oral Sedation
- Consider if only sedation without analgesia required
- Midazolam 0.5-1mg/kg PO 10-20min prior to procedure
- Chloral hydrate 50-75mg/kg PO 30min prior to procedure
- May give additional 25-50mg/kg PO x 1 after 30min if needed
Intranasal sedation
- Give 1mL at a time alternating nare. Contraindicated if significant URI
- Midazolam 0.2mg/kg IN
- Fentanyl 2mcg/kg IN
Cincinnati Children's Hospital Protocol
Side Effects
- Desaturation
- Stimulate
- Try pressure behind ear
- Jaw thrust
- Nasal airway
- BVM
- NIV
- LMA
- Intubation
- Stimulate
Disposition
- Monitor until patient alert, at baseline level of consciousness, have purposeful neuromuscular activity, and have baseline vital signs [5]
- Not necessary to tolerate oral challenge [6]
