Procedural sedation has become popular for describing a semiconscious state that allows patients to be comfortable during certain surgical or diagnostic procedures. Sedation may be enhanced by locoregional anesthetic techniques to produce sufficient analgesia and muscle relaxation for surgery to occur. Sedation and local anesthesia for standing diagnostic and surgical procedures on the horse's head circumvents the potential complications of general anesthesia (particularly, complications related to recovery). However, the implementation of a locoregional anesthetic technique requires a thorough understanding of the anatomy to maximize success and minimize possible complications.
在描述一种半意识状态时，程序镇静已变得流行，这种状态可使患者在某些手术或诊断过程中感到舒适。镇静作用可通过局部区域麻醉技术来增强，从而产生足够的镇痛和肌肉松弛，以进行手术。对马头部进行站立式诊断和手术时进行镇静和局部麻醉可避免全身麻醉的潜在并发症（特别是与恢复相关的并发症）。但是，要实现局部区域麻醉技术，需要对解剖结构有透彻的了解，以最大程度地提高成功率并最小化可能的并发症。
