What is Deep Sedation?
This technique involves administering medications to induce a state where a patient is not fully conscious, yet they may respond to repeated movement. Under deep sedation, patients may need assistance with keeping an open airway and adequate ventilation. Healthcare professionals closely monitor vital signs to ensure the patient’s safety throughout the procedure.
