What is light sedation for a procedure ??

Question

?????

Answer

Depends on what it is but it means you’ll be awake and not put under. You’ll probably be given local anesthetic and something via iv or laughing gas that makes you sedated but still conscious.

Answer

I work in a cardiac lab where our nurses give light sedation to our patients for procedures lasting anywhere from 1-4 hours. It’s a mix of versed and fentanyl and gives you a twilight amnesia sedation. You can sleep, or feel like you’re awake and talk a little if we talk to you, but you won’t remember anything. No tube down you’re throat and oxygen through a cannula for the procedure since your breathing slows a little when you get sedation. Nothing to be scared about :)

Answer
