In retrospect, the dosage of IV sedatives used in the early days of
endoscopy both in the USA and Great Britain was frequently too
high. Today, we are much more careful in the way we sedate
patients, being acutely aware of the fact that if the patient
becomes unresponsive and verbal contact is lost then, by
definition, a general anaesthetic has just been administered with
all the clinical and legal implications that this holds. This
expertly written book examines all aspects of conscious sedation
and will be an essential reference for nurses and other health
professionals involved in the clinical care of patients undergoing
diagnostic or therapeutic procedures that require conscious
sedation. Each chapter covers a particular area of the practice of
conscious sedation and the authors come from a wide spectrum of
clinical specialities.
