Providing procedural sedation for pediatric patients presents unique challenges. Children's hospitals have protocols in place to provide safe, high-quality sedation care delivered by specialists in pediatric sedation and anesthesiology. However, the demand for procedural sedation for diagnostic and therapeutic procedures is increasing. This article describes some of the key components involved in establishing a protocol for safe and effective pediatric sedation services including screening techniques for patients at higher risk for complications and appropriate monitoring and rescue plans. We also review medications commonly used for pediatric sedation and pain management and discuss resources available to physicians who provide pediatric sedation.
