AB The  need  for  pediatric  sedation  has  increased  for  elective  and  emergency  procedures  in  nontraditional  settings  in  imaging  facilities  and  elsewhere.  Sedation  is  a  wide  spectrum  of  conscious  states  affiliated  with  many  potential  pitfalls  before,  during  and  after  the  sedation  period.  The  goals  of  pediatric  sedation  are  to  guard  the  child’s  safety  and  welfare,  minimize  physical  discomfort  and  pain,  control  anxiety/minimize  psychological  trauma,  maximize  potential  for  amnesia,  control  behavior/movement  for  safety  of  procedure  and  return  patient  to  state  allowing  safe  discharge.
