Moderate and Deep Sedation in Clinical Practice 3rd Edition

With the number of surgical procedures requiring sedation increasing every year, most hospitals and other facilities now have a procedural (moderate/deep) sedation program. The third edition of this popular handbook provides concise, practical, and evidence-based guidance on safe and effective procedural sedation. Featuring contributions from national experts, chapters cover the description/definition of sedation levels, patient evaluation, pharmacology, legal and quality assurance issues, as well as sedation for specific populations (ambulatory/office settings, elderly, pediatric, ICU, emergency room, endoscopy, reproductive technologies). The book also reviews the specific clinical and administrative considerations for the nursing and PA staff often involved in administering sedation. Comprehensively updated to incorporate the most current, evidence-based information including updates to existing guidelines, patient outcomes data from the most recently published papers and expanded sedation-related content in sub-specialties. An essential manual for a wide array of healthcare providers to develop safer techniques, policies, and procedures for moderate and sedation.

• Covering all aspects of sedation in clinical practice, including pharmacology, patient selection, emergencies, policies, specialty-specific considerations, it is the only book to discuss deep sedation in such detail, in addition to moderate sedation

• An “A-to-Z” clinical manual containing everything needed for a facility to establish a new procedural sedation program, e.g. writing a policy, practitioner education, etc
