Sedation Protocols
Sedation protocols are guidelines used by healthcare professionals to safely calm or relax patients during medical procedures. These protocols ensure that the right level of sedation is administered, which can range from mild relaxation to deeper unconsciousness, depending on the procedure’s needs. The protocols include patient assessment, monitoring vital signs, and providing specific medications under controlled doses. The goal is to keep patients comfortable and minimize anxiety or pain while ensuring their safety throughout the process. Following these protocols helps prevent complications and allows for a smoother experience for both patients and healthcare providers.
